Trial record

Connect an individual attempt to its protocol, conditions, outcome, interventions, and evidence files.

Use the three records together

  1. Write the protocol. Define the question and the decision the evaluation needs to support. Pilot the setup, then freeze and version the scored protocol.
  2. Identify the configuration. Complete a profile for the robot used in evaluation. Record the differences from the model’s development setup and any intended OEM configuration.
  3. Account for the trials. Copy the trial record for each scheduled attempt, using stable identifiers. Keep failures, interventions, exclusions, and reruns connected to the original record.

The JSON files are blank templates, not benchmark data. Replace placeholders with real values, keep missing measurements as null, and define any additional fields in your protocol. Arrays begin empty; the trial template includes a field guide for recording interventions.

Adapt the method to the question

These resources describe a starting structure, not a universal benchmark or a completed validation. Choose the trial allocation and uncertainty method for the actual design. A small set of repeatable tasks can answer a bounded question without establishing performance across an industry.
