Robot Death Watch

suggested to Faraday Predictive

Many kinds of domestic robot and home appliances rely on small motors that have an unknown time to failure. Your task is to create a monitoring system that uses voltage and current profile to predict number of cycles until a failure. This should be offered as an online service that can be used by the homeowner to order spare parts, or a contract maintenance company responsible for keeping the household running without hitches. The project will involve testing a number of motors to destruction in order to build machine learning prediction profiles.
