Overview
ALICE is a simple, adaptive mobile robot platform designed for research in self-localization and navigation in real-world conditions with challenging environmental factors. The project focuses on spatial modeling and navigation behaviors, including the generation of dynamic, self-organizing maps of sensor situations. The platform operates in hard real-time domains and demonstrates both local and global navigation capabilities despite harsh conditions including drift effects, noise, low sensor resolutions, and systematic errors.
Flagship features
- Integrated with PRoMS (PROVEN Robotics Management System), a no-code platform for content management and customization
- Open SDK and API for custom integrations
- 360° human detection and facial recognition (name-based greeting may require custom database integration)
- HD pickup microphone array for voice capture from multiple directions
- LiDAR with ultrasonic obstacle avoidance sensor
- 3 DOF (limited joint movement) for gesture-like interactions
