Autonomous Mobile Manipulator Robots
This is a sole source notice for two ReBeL robotic platforms from igus, Inc., intended for the NIOSH Robotics Laboratory in Morgantown, WV. The robots will support two funded research projects focused on human-robot interaction, safety, and trust. The platforms must operate within a closed, secure local network without internet or remote vendor access, and must be compatible with Robot Operating System 2 (ROS 2). Key technical requirements include independent verification of ROS 2 compatibility, compliance with CDC IT security policies, and integrated LIDAR and camera capabilities. No budget amounts or submission timelines are specified in the description.
