| 80% reliability for the coupling mechanism | P3, P4 | 14 / 15 | 2/2 | 1/1 |
| 100% POIs reached | P2, P5 | 24 / 30 | 3/3 | 3/4 |
| 100% Collisions Avoided | P2 | 29 / 30 | 2/3 | 3/4 |
| POI exploration less than 5 mins per run | P2 | 22 / 30 | 3/3 | 3/4 |
Key Takeaways
| 3D Printing is not reliable enough for our designs |
| Test out key assumptions as early as possible |
| Localization is very important to our successes |
| WiFi comms are unreliable without precautions |
| The necessity of well-documented issue logs |
| Start integrating as early as possible |
| Robustness can be greatly improved |
| Don’t over-test mechanisms – they tend to break |
