| Title | Enhancement of Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) to fulfil Last Mile Deliveries in Residential Apartments |
| Summary | Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) are increasingly deployed in logistics, but current systems are limited to lobby or collection-point deliveries, falling short of true doorstep fulfilment. This project focuses on enhancing existing AMRs with custom hardware modules and AI-assisted software to enable reliable parcel handling in residential apartment environments such as HDB flats in Singapore. The project will begin with the design of modular attachments that allow parcels of varying sizes to be sorted, secured, and placed at individual doorsteps. Concurrently, an AI-assisted algorithm will be developed to ensure safe and organized delivery, accounting for different doorway constraints. The proposed enhancements will first be validated in a simulation environment with varied parcel dimensions, apartment layouts, and navigation noise levels, before being tested in controlled trials using mock HDB doorsteps. The system’s performance will be assessed in terms of parcel placement accuracy, success rate, and delivery time, providing insights into the feasibility of scalable, doorstep-capable AMRs for last-mile delivery. |
