Building Definition Language

Robot-Readiness Requirements define the physical, geometric, digital, procedural, and safety conditions required for automated interaction.

Each robot-ready Entity shall define:

machine-readable identity;

local coordinate system;

target pose;

reference datums;

approach directions;

approach envelope;

exclusion envelope;

grasp zones;

prohibited contact zones;

mass;

center of gravity;

gripping-force limits;

engagement-force limits;

tool requirements;

state feedback;

recovery behavior.

Example:

robot_readiness_requirement RRR_EndCartridge_001 {

subject: @EndCartridge_EC01;

identity_marker: @EC01_Robotic_Marker;

grasp_zone: @EC01_Grasp_Zone;

target_interface: @N01_X_Positive;

approach_direction: negative_x;

coarse_alignment_tolerance {

translation: ±5 mm;

rotation: ±2 deg;

};

final_alignment_tolerance {

translation: ±0.5 mm;

rotation: ±0.25 deg;

};

}

Robot readiness shall include more than geometric reachability. The robot shall be able to:

discover the correct Entity;

verify identity;

determine pose;

grasp safely;

approach without collision;

engage within force limits;

verify locking;

record evidence;

recover from incomplete operation.

A robot-ready Interface shall provide mechanical guidance capable of accommodating the validated residual positioning error.

Unknown pose, identity mismatch, obstructed envelope, excessive force, human entry, or state conflict shall trigger a defined stop or recovery condition.
