Autonomous robotic operation of equipment and vehicles

A robotic system comprising:

• a movement system configured to move the robotic system between physical locations;
• at least one interaction interface configured to physically interact with operator controls of a piece of equipment;
• and
• at least one processing circuit having at least one processor and at least one memory having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
• receive a command to perform a task using the piece of equipment;
• receive equipment information associated with the piece of equipment via a wireless connection with at least one of the piece of equipment or an external system;
• determine how to operate the piece of equipment using the operator controls based on the equipment information;
• and
• engage the operator controls using the at least one interaction interface to operate the piece of equipment to perform the task.

A method for autonomously operating a vehicle using a robotic system, the method comprising:

• receiving, by a robotic system, a command to perform a task using a vehicle having operator controls;
• acquiring, by the robotic system, vehicle information associated with the vehicle via a wireless connection with at least one of the vehicle or an external system;
• determining, by the robotic system, how to operate the vehicle using the operator controls based on the vehicle information;
• and
• engaging, by the robotic system, the operator controls using at least one interaction interface to operate the vehicle to perform the task.
