Part 5/10:
Hierarchical Control and Real-Time Decision Making
The D7 utilizes a sophisticated control architecture divided into high-level strategic planning and low-level real-time control. High-level planning involves task strategizing—deciding the best approach to greet, retrieve, or deliver items—while low-level planning manages movements and adjustments, such as obstacle avoidance or grip modulation.
This hierarchical system grants the D7 remarkable agility, especially in dynamic environments where rapid reactivity is essential. It allows the robot to handle complex interactions seamlessly, whether navigating crowded spaces or handling delicate objects.
