Student Engineer. Concept work.

A concept for an autonomous shopping and inventory robot: a chassis, sensing, navigation and the interaction needed to check stock in a store. It stayed on paper and in early prototyping, and this page labels it exactly that way.

It earns its place as the first time I thought seriously about robots doing commercial work in messy human spaces, a thread that returned years later in warehouse automation thinking and in the operations agents I build now.

Status — Concept, 2012–2016. Not built to completion.
