For simplicity, OctoMY™ classifies robots using two basic parameters:
- Mobility: How the robot moves.
- Manipulator: How the robot manipulates it's environment.
To reduce complexity, the current model only allows for one mobility and one implement per agent, however in the future this model may be expanded uppon to support more flexible configurations.
