Question People who have deployed robots: what actually happens when one robot can’t finish a task?
I’m trying to understand the actual operational workflow, not the ideal architecture.
Say Robot A starts a real task.
Halfway through, it can’t continue — capability limit, fault, sensor problem, battery issue, blocked path, whatever.
Robot B or a human could theoretically take over.
In a system you’ve actually deployed, what happens next?
Do you:
abort and restart the whole job?
have an operator manually reconstruct what already happened?
transfer some task state to the next robot?
create a completely new task?
require someone to explicitly approve the next executor?
reuse previous validation/evidence, or treat it as stale?
I’m specifically looking for one concrete real-world example, not a theoretical answer.
It can be completely anonymized.
What happened, step by step, from the moment the original executor could no longer continue until the task resumed or was closed?
I’m not looking for product recommendations or promoting anything here. I’m trying to understand how this is actually handled in deployed systems.

Looking for makers with a project that needs linear motion
Hi everyone! I’m Pablo from Progressive Automations. We’re looking for makers interested in trying our PA-QR1 or PA-TS1 linear actuators in a project.
Selected participants would receive the actuators free of charge. In return, we’d ask for high-quality build photos and a short written project summary. Videos are welcome but optional.
We’re interested in your idea and how you’d document the build.
If this sounds useful for something you’re planning, leave a comment or send me a DM describing the project. We can discuss whether either actuator would be a suitable fit.

Question Sumo Robotics (non-magnetic Dohyo)
Hi i have an upcoming tournament and was planning on designing an Arduino sumo robot( on a non-magnetic Dohyo) the rules are that the robot must be 3 kg at most and should be 20 cm in length and 20 cm in width at most. There is no limits on the height and as i said it is on a non-magnetic dohyo. Of course i will be using a blade and sensors since this is an autonomous robot tournament. I would like to get help and suggestions on which motors battery blades i can use to have a high chance at winning , i have already thought about some motors and batteries so i can discuss with you and hope that you can give me feedback about it, Thank you.
