Iron Range is a standing set of test tracks, and a track built from a customer's own site. A planner or a whole autonomy stack drives the same track and leaves a record that replays. It is one of the mule.bot tools that Iron Context ties together.
A track is a job with the answer written down
The standing set
Each track asks one thing of a machine: hold a lane, spot at a point, push a pile, keep its lap on wet ground. The same track is there next month, so two runs can be compared.
Your site as a track
A track can be built from a customer's own site: its roads, its dump, its loading area. The plays that run there are the jobs that site does.
A record that replays
A run ends with a record: where each machine was, what it was told and what the ground did. The record replays as a film, and a result is read from the record, not from the film.
One lap course, wet ground
The same lap course is run dry and wet. On wet ground the tires cut the surface lap by lap, and the tracker meets slip it was not told about. The run is judged on what it leaves in the record.
Worked examples for the teams we work with
Track runs
Films and records of spot runs, pile pushes and laps, with the instrument readings each film quotes.
Reference traces
One site followed from the public record to a test result, with the track run as the last step.
Your stack on a track
How a planner or a full stack is connected to a track, and what record it has to leave.
One of the tools above the machine
Iron Context is all of the mule.bot tools and the written interface between each pair, so any one of them can be replaced by yours. Iron Range reads from and writes to its neighbours.
