MARS Example use-cases

As an extensible general-purpose robot, MARS can be used for a wide array of use-cases, which can be further increased with additional sensors and effectors.

All the examples below are possible autonomously — some of them might require more data than we have collected so far.

  • A Desk Personal Productivity companion that hits you whenever you look at your phone or when it sees you are not working on your screen.

  • An Elderly Companion that takes notes during the day of what your grand-parents do and can remind them to take their medicine.

  • A floor decluttering robot that takes legos and trash off the floor and in a particular bin in another room.

  • A Chess Playing Robot that roasts you while you play (or adopts a different character depending on the user).

  • A Security Robot that can open doors and explore the place, and call 911 if it sees someone.

  • A food serving robot that can put food in your plate when you show one in front of it.

  • A concierge robot that gives indication to visitors, flyers, and drives them to destination.

Autonomous demos

The videos below show real autonomous deployments of MARS in different situations. All were accomplished with training the arm and running the BASIC agent.
