Abstract

This invention provides a multi-task robotic assistant and a method for autonomous or manual, mobile or non-mobile applications thereof. The robotic assistant comprises a scaffold, which is constructed of vertical poles and horizontal frames surrounding it, a load carrier carried by the scaffold, a manipulator carried on the load carrier, an end effector mounted on the manipulator for carrying out a selected task, sensors attached to the scaffold that return sensing information of the work environment of the robotic assistant, and a PMA (Process Manager Apparatus) that supports execution of a plurality of applications and tasks. The method of operation is done by creating one or more tasks, which are generated, controlled and executed by the PMA. The tasks may follow a 3D environment model and a preset ROI (Range Of Interest) or advance according to a user commands and information received from the sensors onsite. The tasks may be concatenated one to another, thus generating a complete mission for the robotic assistant to carry out.
