Spring Validation Demonstration

For the Spring Validation Demonstration, we established success criteria for five different tests. These tests focused on the system requirements involving the detection of hotspots, estimating the pose of hotspots, navigating to hotspots, moving the spray nozzle, and spraying hotspots. The table below shows that our measured performance met or exceeded expectations for each of the tests.

Success CriteriaMeasured Performance
Detect hotspots with 50% mAPDetected hotspots with 65% mAP
Estimate position of hotspots within +/- 10 cm accuracy when within 1 meter of the hotspotEstimated within +/- 10 cm accuracy when within 1 meter, 1.5 meters, and 2 meters
Navigate to within 0.25 m and 15° of hotspots on hard, flat indoor floors reliably at 0.25 m/sNavigated to within 0.15 m and 10° of hotspots on hard, flat indoor floors reliably at 0.5 m/s  in simulation
Move spray nozzle with 1 degree of freedomMoved spray nozzle vertically with 1 degree of freedom
Spray hotspots with 0.5 m2 coverageSprayed a 1.05m2 surface (table) in NSH
