Wireless Sensing Platform
HF-01 Autonomous Utility Droid
A semi-autonomous cyber-physical robot that patrols an environment, collects sensor data, builds a map, detects anomalies, and reports findings to an operator.
The system is designed to:
- Sense real-world physical signals
- Process data locally at the edge
- Transmit data wirelessly via BLE
- Provide real-time visibility into physical environments
This project serves as a modular platform for future applications in infrastructure monitoring, environmental sensing, and intelligent automation.
Mission
- Navigate indoor environments
- Avoid obstacles
- Report environmental conditions
- Operate for 1+ hour
- Support remote monitoring
- Support future AI upgrades
Development Roadmap
Phase 1: Architecture
Layer 1: Safety Controller
Nordic nRF52
Responsibilities:
- Motor watchdog
- Battery monitoring
- Emergency stop
- Sensor acquisition
- Real-time tasks
Layer 2: Robot Brain
Raspberry Pi
Layer 3: Operator Station
Laptop or web dashboard.
Displays:
- Battery
- Temperature
- Pressure

Why
Modern systems increasingly rely on real-time awareness of physical environments. The process is:
- Digitize physical signals
- Enable remote visibility
- Serve as building blocks for smarter infrastructure
Project 1 represents the first step toward scalable cyber-physical systems under the Hybrid Futr vision.
