Purpose and goal
SCOTT was a European Research project for SECURE CONNECTED TRUSTABLE THINGS. Its goals was to provide cost-efficient solutions of wireless, end to end secure, trustworthy connectivity and interoperability. As part of the SCOTT project, Ericsson has been responsible for driving WP10 which centered around the use case of an automated warehouse, where work carried out by humans and machines is planned, evaluated for safety and coordinated in order to fulfil orders and carry out different tasks in connection with that in a timely and trustworthy fashion.
Expected results and effects
All the goals of WP10 has been satisfied and Ericsson delivered a demonstrator of a self-aware warehouse, where several AI components have been demonstrated, such as AI planning, scene understanding, human-robot collaboration via framework for risk assesment, verification and goal specification. The results have been dissiminated to high ranked conferences and Ericsson internal events. Some of the components are taken further by Ericsson supply factory, and are adjusted for the telecom domain.
Planned approach and implementation
The code of the self-aware warehouse has been developed in an agile manner into a SCOTT Warehouse Sandbox. Several reusable components have been developed, and everything is open source and documented here: https://github.com/EricssonResearch/scott-eu
