Autonomous Patrol Robot Systems Analysis
A systems engineering study for evaluating autonomous security robot deployment through stakeholder criteria, survey processing, and weighted scoring.
Overview
This project evaluated whether autonomous patrol robots could be deployed in public or facility environments with acceptable technical, operational, and stakeholder conditions.
Problem & Approach
The core problem was turning broad stakeholder concerns into measurable criteria. The approach used a weighted evaluation model built around need, demand, acceptance, and concern, supported by survey analysis and literature review.
System Architecture
The project architecture was an evaluation workflow: stakeholder needs, survey responses, criteria weighting, preprocessing, scoring, and final feasibility interpretation.
My Role
- Helped structure the evaluation criteria and scoring model.
- Processed survey data from 100+ respondents.
- Automated weighted scoring using Python and MATLAB.
- Supported recommendation framing for the industry partner.
Evidence
Evidence includes survey data processing logic, weighted scoring outputs, framework notes, and presentation/report materials. Visual artifacts will be added after review for shareability.
Outcome
The project produced a structured basis for evaluating deployment feasibility and communicating robot adoption tradeoffs to the industry partner.
Limitations
The results should be interpreted as a structured feasibility study, not a final field deployment validation. The study depended on survey data, assumptions, and scope constraints.
Next Step
Next steps include adding decision-matrix visuals, documenting assumptions, and connecting the scoring model to specific deployment scenarios.
