Mobile Robotics: Enabling a Pervasive Technology of the Future
Lead Research Organisation:
University of Oxford
Department Name: Engineering Science
Abstract
VISION: To create, run and exploit the world's leading research programme in mobile autonomy addressing fundamental technical issues which impede large scale commercial and societal adoption of mobile robotics.
AMBITION: We need to build better robots - we need them to be cheap, work synergistically with people in large, complex and time-changing environments and do so for long periods of time. Moreover, it is essential that they are safe and trusted. We are compelled as researchers to produce the foundational technologies that will see robots work in economically and socially important domains. These motivations drive the science in this proposal.
STRATEGY: Robotics is fast advancing to a point where autonomous systems can add real value to the public domain. The potential reach of mobile robotics in particular is vast, covering sectors as diverse as transport, logistics, space, defence, agriculture and infrastructure management. In order to realise this potential we need our robots to be cheap, work synergistically with people in large, complex and time-changing environments and do so robustly for long periods of time. Our aim, therefore, is to create a lasting, catalysing impact on UKPLC by growing a sustainable centre of excellence in mobile autonomy. A central tenet to this research is that the capability gap between the state of the art and what is needed is addressed by designing algorithms that leverage experiences gained through real and continued world use. Our machines will operate in support of humans and seamlessly integrate into complex cyber-physical systems with a variety of physical and computational elements. We must, therefore, be able to guarantee, and even certify, that the software that controls the robots is safe and trustworthy by design. We will engage in this via a range of flagship technology demonstrators in different domains (transport, logistics, space, etc.), which will mesh the research together, giving at once context, grounding, validation and impact.

Planned Impact
Mobile autonomy is a pivotal precursor to a large number of industrial sectors in the global economy with an ability to reach a truly vast audience. To realise this potential, it is imperative to combine academic excellence with an appropriate grounding of the research in industrial need. We run a "petal" impact model. At the heart of the endeavour is research staff (the focus of this proposal). The research team are surrounded by an expert engineering support. Within this team are knowledge exchange engineers and an impact coordinator who are charged with managing the flow of knowledge between industrial parties and the group. We offer membership to the group on a sector by sector basis to industrial parties.
Here our proposal will create a lasting, catalysing impact on UKPLC.
Industrial Impact - the true impact, reach, ambition and industrial richness of this proposal is best illustrated by some of our research flagships - domain-specific, physical instantiations of integrated competencies developed across the consortium - which act as showcases to existing and potential industrial partners and therefore serve to catalyse impact. Examples include the development of the UK's first self-driving car (in collaboration with Nissan, automotive council, transport catapult, MIRA), the development of ultra low-cost warehousing solutions for stock management and asset tracking (in collaboration with Gompells Ltd, Guidance Navigation Ltd) and the development of robotics technology to help understand the condition of our national transport infrastructure -- particularly rail and road (in collaboration with AMEY, Highways Agency, Network Rail). Our long term plan is to act as a hub for enterprise networking and support and will serve as a catalyst to enable investors, existing businesses, and new enterprises to shape the service and autonomous robotics industries of tomorrow.
Academic Impact - the award of a Programme Grant will stimulate the transition of robotics technology from an academic pedigree to real-world applications of industrial significance. As such, it will inspire a novel research paradigm driven by need. It will foster innovation to overcome real-world challenges in realising sustainable and affordable autonomy. This, we expect, will consolidate and strengthen the UK research base across disciplines (such as the currently disjoint fields of robotics and verification) and open up new vistas of research such as safe-by-design autonomous systems.
Societal Impact - we aspire for robots to assist people in various aspects of everyday life, from driverless cars to assisted living. However, while the scientific boundaries are receding issues surrounding trust and acceptance of this technology into society become ever more apparent. Immediately then questions of Responsible Innovation must be asked. The AREA (Anticipate-Reflect-Engage-Act) paradigm is of course apt here as set out by EPSRC. The Programme Grant will: Anticipate results of related research on the impact of automation on employment; Reflect on and promote ethical thinking around intelligent machines and the social benefits of micro-interactions between robots and people; Engage with stakeholders at TSB and BIS, and the general public to provide us with feedback surrounding the effects of our innovation; and Act to test exemplars of human-robot interaction and embed safety in the DNA of machines that people interact with.

| Description | Overall the grant is proceeding exactly as we had hoped. We are making steady and exciting progress through the science case and producing a stream of prize winning publications. We are breaking into new technical ground (dense reconstruction, verification, trust) We are starting to see ways in which the verification ideas in CS can be applied to vital parts of the robotics endeavour for example in the algorithms at the heart of Ingmar's 3D perception system & Vote3D. The PG has enticed JLR to join as an MRG member and on the back of that will soon be taking delivery of a new vehicle for us to autonomise. We hope to be on the road by the summer of 2016. We have recruited 5 new postdocs despite the recruitment concern below. We are more enthused than ever about the efficacy of flagships as a spectacular way to force the integration of research outcomes. Indeed at the end of this summer we should see the PG outputs operating a self-driving Pod around MiltonKeynes. We have had two international visits Peter Corke and Hadas Kress-Gazit and the latter in particular looks like catalysing new work with both CS and MRG. We are looking to move into new spaces and just recently started a thread on looking at how our perception and localisation could help with the management of Ash die back - we see forestry as an important global concern. |
| Exploitation Route | The MRG's work has been commercialised into a company, PlinkArt, which was purchased by Google in 2010 - its first UK acquisition. MRG's laser based navigation work has been licensed to Guidance Navigation Ltd, a major robot navigation company and sponsor. Newman's navigation software was used in curtailing the 2010 Gulf oil leak. Newman is the author of the MOOS software package used in marine autonomy projects around the world (for example DARPA DASH program which will run on a US submarines next year). In Summer 2014, after a year-long selection process and independent verification, MRG's visual navigation package "oVo" was chosen (and licensed) for the upcoming ESA ExoMars project. In Sept 2014, a university spin out "Oxbotica" will be started (founded by Newman and Posner) to handle the commercialisation of Oxford's robotics I.P portfolio. |

| Impact | Three reports set out what is distinctive about data science as a discipline and offers some key statistics from commissioned research to show the level of growth in demand for a range of data skills. They explore the different drivers and blockers around data science roles in different sectors, and highlight examples from a body of case studies of data science careers and career mobility across sectors. The reports were generated following an in-depth review across government, academia and industry which highlighted the need to: - Develop foundational knowledge and skills - Advance professional skills and nurture talent - Enable movement and sharing of talent and - Widen access to data in a well governed way. Furthermore, priority needs, models and mechanisms, and recommended actions for addressing these needs are laid out. A clear need for collaborative, sustainable mechanisms to develop data talent in academia, and the charity, private and public sectors, and to allow data scientists to move across these sectors was identified. The reports promote a vision for the sharing of data science talent across all sectors to achieve a vision for the UK to be a leading data science research nation with a sustainable flow of expertise and a healthy data science skills landscape. https://royalsociety.org/topics-policy/projects/dynamics-of-data-science/ https://royalsociety.org/-/media/policy/projects/dynamics-of-data-science/DES5847-3-Data-skills-case-studies-document.pdf |

We won't have to drive oursleves when tired, schlep stuff around warehouses, be bored on tractors, choke in mines, freeze on mars or miss broken pipes in nuclear inspection. If we choose to, the coming years will see machines doing more for us and doing it better. In this talk I pull apart some of the competencies needed to build "intelligent" self driving vehicles. I'll explain what makes it hard, what makes it exciting and how it all comes together in a glorious bit of robotics science." Prof. Paul Newman, Oxford Robotics Institute. CDT students from all the sciences at Oxford University Join us for a day of exploring Information Engineering and Computer Science, with some of Oxford's leading and most exciting academics. |

| Results and Impact | CDT week is a concentrated programme of study in Robotics, at the Robotics Institute, for AIMS CDT students. The Oxford robotics Institute provide teams with a working robot (a Husky or Kuku Youbot) and some key software and hardware components for example a visual odometry system, a low level controller, a communications manager and a visualisation tool kit, a dense stereo library and a location sensing device. Exercises The course is built around a single extensive practical (long days of great enjoyment). Students are split into two teams, each given a mobile robot (100kg) and at the end of the week compete in a mobile robot challenge (for example finding an object in the University Parks). Assessment Mode Students give a presentation of results and critique of their system to the Oxford Robotics Institute on the final day of the program. Each team member will be asked to write a 3 page report on their contribution and evaluate the overall performance of their implementation.b |

| Results and Impact | EPSRC are undertaking a review of our robotics, automation and artificial intelligence portfolios of relevance to Robotics and Autonomous Systems (RAS) in order to evaluate the quality and importance of EPSRC's portfolio of research and training in the area. To facilitate this we are hosting a Theme Day on the 31st January 2017 in Central London. The Theme Day will involve poster presentations from holders of current and recent related grants from across the EPSRC portfolio. A panel of internationally leading experts chaired by Prof David Hogg will use the posters and discussions with attendees to draw conclusions about the portfolio as a whole. The outcomes of the review will be used to inform future strategy in the area of RAAI and will not impact on future funding decisions at a PI level. The Theme day will be an opportunity for PIs to present their research to the review panel. The day will also give attendees an opportunity to view work of relevance to RAAI from across the EPSRC portfolio and to network with leaders in the area from across the UK. As a holder of such a related grant(s) (details below) we would like to invite you to attend the event. Related Grant(s): EP/I005021/1, EP/J012017/1, EP/M019918/1 |

| Results and Impact | This flagship has its genesis in the LUTZ project which is a collaboration between RDM, Oxford and the Transport Systems Catapult. RDM are making the vehicle hardware, we are supplying the autonomy software and sensor systems and the Transport Systems Catapult are overseeing the project and coordinating trials with Milton Keynes Council. Beyond demonstrating autonomous vehicles, the project will address the wider key challenge of how to increase mobility by demonstrating and analysing the potential for effective and cost-efficient movement of people in a city. The LUTZ project will see Pods deployed in the streets of Milton Keynes in 2016 running the complete autonomy system we refer to as "Selenium." Selenium draws on competencies from across our technology portfolio but some of the videos below give a sense of its deployment on Light Urban Vehicles. |

| Results and Impact | From: Michael Tanner Subject: Vex Robotics Competition Date: 6 February 2017 at 12:59:07 GMT To: Paul Newman , Ingmar Posner [This is purely an FYI/feel-good email. No action required.] Paul/Ingmar, Last week I took a day off to judge the "regionals" of Vex Robotics competition (primarily a STEM-outreach program) hosted at Stowe School http://www.vexrobotics.com/vexedr/competition/ I thoroughly enjoyed the event and was fascinated at the creative designs students developed for this year's challenge. Here is a YouTube video showing the types of robots students develop: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCck9_vk8H4 The students were quite diverse (boys/girls, 10 - 17 years old, hail from UK/US/China, etc.), but they all shared a deep passion regarding their respective robot designs. The level of knowledge some of the students demonstrated was impressive (e.g., describing the chemical/material property trade-offs between various plastics included in their designs). Once the students learned I was studying robotics at Oxford, I was inuidated with questions. I went home and immeditally ordered one of Vex Robotics' cheaper toy robotics kits (http://www.vexrobotics.com/vexiq) for my daughters to play with at home. -- Michael Tanner Oxford Robotics Institute Department of Engineering Science University of Oxford Comm +44 7514 119187 |

| Results and Impact | Driverless vehicle to be tested on UK streets for the first time Reuters (US), 10/10/2016, A driverless vehicle carrying passengers will take to Britain's public roads for the first time on Tuesday, as part of trials aimed at paving the way for autonomous cars to hit the highways by the end of the decade. The system was developed by Oxford University spin-out Oxbotica, with software developed by the University's Oxford Robotics Institute. A pod - like a small two-seater car - developed by Oxbotica will be tested in Milton Keynes today, with organisers hoping the trials will provide vital information about how the vehicle interacts with pedestrians and other road-users. The pod will operate fully without human control, using data from cameras and radars to move around pedestrianised areas. The government is encouraging technology companies, carmakers and start-ups to develop and test their autonomous driving technologies in Britain, aiming to build an industry to serve a worldwide market which it forecasts could be worth around £900 billion pounds by 2025. Earlier this year, it launched a consultation on changes to insurance rules and motoring regulations to allow driverless cars to be used by 2020 and said it would allow such vehicles to be tested on motorways from next year. "Today's first public trials of driverless vehicles in our towns is a ground-breaking moment," business minister Greg Clark said. www.reuters.com/article/us-britain-autos-driverless-idUSKCN12A2KX Also: Radio: LBC 97.3, Nick Abbot 11/10/2016 The first 'driverless' cars will be tested in the UK in an area of Milton Keynes today.

Professor Paul Newman from Oxford University, who has been leading the development of the software installed in the vehicle, said: 'Technology like this is going to have a big part to play in our lives, and it's going to roll out over time. I see it as more than just driverless cars, though. Think about all the things that move: ports, warehouse, farming, agriculture, mining - it's the software that makes these things extraordinary. It's not so much the hardware, it's the information engineering, it's programmes that can take data from cameras and lasers and turn that into an understanding for the machine of what's going on, and from that it can figure out what it should do. So we have three questions: where am I? What's around me? What should I do? And the software answers that question really fast all the time.'
