Description
Mt. Hood Community College is seeking bids for advanced robotics platforms to support instruction, research, and workforce training in the Advanced Robotics Laboratory. The College intends to purchase two complementary robotic systems: a humanoid bipedal robotic platform and a quadrupedal robotic platform. The systems must support open development environments and be suitable for higher education teaching and research. The equipment will be used by faculty and students in courses and applied research involving artificial intelligence, robotics control, locomotion, perception, and human-robot interaction.
Key features required for the humanoid bipedal robot platform include:
• Bipedal humanoid locomotion platform
• Multi-degree-of-freedom articulated body
• Integrated sensors for balance, motion, and perception
• Onboard compute capable of running AI and robotics algorithms
• Open or accessible software development platform
Key features required for the quadrupedal robot platform include:
• Four-legged robotic locomotion platform
• Integrated perception sensors
• Support for LiDAR or equivalent 3D sensing
• Onboard computing capable of running AI or robotics applications
• Open development environment
Vendors must provide product specifications, educational documentation and learning resources, warranty information, technical support availability, delivery timeline, and pricing including all required accessories and licenses.
