Missions

Missions are structured data collection campaigns published on the RoboX platform. Each mission defines a clear purpose, geographic scope, reward model, and technical requirements. Users participate by activating their RoboX app during daily activity, automatically contributing data relevant to the mission objectives.


Mission Structure

Every mission follows a standardized configuration:

Parameter
Description

Mission ID

Unique identifier used for validation and payout tracking

Objective

Defines what type of data the campaign collects (e.g., road conditions, motion signatures, environmental sensing)

Data Type

Specifies required sensors and frequency of capture

Reward Model

Outlines point rate per unit of valid data

Duration

Start and end time for active participation

Region

Target collection zone or coverage boundary

Verification Method

Validation logic and thresholds used before reward release


Mission Categories

  1. Smart-City Missions Designed for navigation and urban mapping.

    • Lane detection

    • Traffic signal coverage

    • Road curvature modeling

  2. Environmental Missions Focused on natural and human-made environmental data.

    • Light intensity

    • Temperature, noise, or air quality

    • Localized atmospheric readings

  3. Navigation & Motion Missions Used to improve localization, inertial mapping, and robotic motion planning.

    • Gyroscope pattern calibration

    • Magnetic field alignment

    • Step-count and trajectory mapping

  4. Static Context Missions Capture background or stationary data for context enrichment.

    • Indoor environment mapping

    • Bluetooth and Wi-Fi signal density

    • Desk or room-level ambient monitoring


Participation Flow

  1. Open the RoboX app and navigate to Missions.

  2. Select an active mission within your region.

  3. Review the mission’s details, including what data will be collected and how rewards are calculated.

  4. Tap Start Scanning to begin data contribution.

  5. End scanning manually or let the app auto-stop when mission parameters are complete.

The app automatically processes and uploads validated data, with results displayed under Activity History.


Mission Funding

Each mission is funded through a dedicated pool of RoboX Tokens (ROBOX). Funders, typically research groups, robotics companies, or smart city initiatives, deposit tokens into the campaign’s reward contract. As contributors complete missions, points are distributed proportionally from this pool.


Example Mission

ID: #013-FR-LaneDet-Paris Goal: Enhance lane recognition data for autonomous navigation models. Duration: 14 days Reward Rate: 12 points/km (validated) Expected Output: 5,000 km of verified motion data

Participants in Paris who drive or commute during this period automatically earn points as they generate validated data streams matching the mission parameters.
