This schema is extended by aquatic and aerial modules.
š Relationship to Domain Extensions#
This module is extended by:
rtt-autonomous-fish/rtt-autonomous-drone/- future modules (rovers, walkers, hybrids)
Each extension adds domaināspecific fields without duplicating core logic.
The core schemas remain clean, minimal, and universal.
š§© Usage Pattern#
A typical autonomous form uses:
- Core descriptor
- Core morphology
- Core energy profile
- Core environmental interaction
- Domain extension (fish, drone, rover)
- Mission profile + domain mission extension
This layered approach keeps the system modular and futureāproof.
š¤ RTTāAutonomous Ecosystem#
Unified Schema Framework for Autonomous Forms (RTTāInside)#
The RTTāAutonomous Ecosystem provides a complete, extensible, and domaināneutral foundation for defining autonomous robotic forms across air, water, land, and hybrid environments.
It is built on the principles of ResonanceāTime Theory (RTTāInside), enabling autonomous agents to operate with clarityāaware navigation, driftāaware behavior, and multiāagent coherence.
This ecosystem is composed of:
- RTTāAutonomous Core ā universal schemas for all autonomous forms
- RTTāAutonomousāFish ā aquatic extensions for biomimetic robotic fish
- RTTāAutonomousāDrone ā aerial extensions for drones, multirotors, and fixedāwing craft
Together, these modules form a cohesive, futureāproof substrate for ecological robotics, distributed autonomy, and multiādomain mission planning.
All schemas follow:
- snake_case naming
- JSON Schema Draft 2020ā12
- RTTāInside semantics
- SI units
- UUIDv4 identifiers
- ISOā8601 timestamps
- extensions.

š§© Architecture Overview#
The RTTāAutonomous ecosystem is structured in three layers:
1. Core Layer ā Universal Autonomous Structures#
Located in:
docs/schemas/rtt-autonomous/
This layer defines the fundamental building blocks shared by all autonomous forms:
- identity and morphology
- sensor fusion
- mission profiles
- 3D corridors
- swarm state
- energy profiles
- environmental interaction
These schemas are intentionally domaināneutral and serve as the substrate for all extensions.
2. Domain Extensions ā Specialized Capabilities#
Each domain builds on the core through clean, additive schemas.
š RTTāAutonomousāFish#
Located in:
docs/schemas/rtt-autonomous-fish/
Adds aquaticāspecific structures:
- biomimetic species profiles
- hydrodynamics
- habitat interaction
- underwater mission extensions
- schooling and swarm behavior
Ideal for ecological robotics, Great Lakes restoration, and underwater swarms.
š RTTāAutonomousāDrone#
Located in:
docs/schemas/rtt-autonomous-drone/
Adds aerialāspecific structures:
- frame types (quadcopter, VTOL, fixedāwing)
- flight envelopes
- battery and thermal constraints
- geofencing and altitude rules
- payload and landing behaviors
Supports multirotor autonomy, fixedāwing missions, and airspace corridor navigation.
3. Future Domains ā PlugāandāPlay Growth#
The architecture is designed to support additional modules, such as:
- RTTāAutonomousāRover (ground vehicles)
- RTTāAutonomousāWalker (legged robots)
- RTTāAutonomousāHybrid (air/water, land/air, amphibious)
- RTTāAutonomousāSwarm (crossādomain collectives)
Each new domain extends the core without modifying it.
š How the Modules Work Together#
A typical autonomous form uses:
- Core descriptor
- Core morphology
- Core energy profile
- Core environmental interaction
- Domain extension (fish, drone, rover, etc.)
- Mission profile + domain mission extension
This layered approach ensures:
- clean separation of concerns
- maximum reuse
- minimal duplication
- futureāproof extensibility
- RTTāInside clarity/drift integration
š RTTāInside Integration#
All autonomous schemas are designed to integrate with RTTāInside concepts:
- clarity_score ā environmental signal quality
- drift_vector ā behavioral or environmental drift
- coherence_score ā swarm alignment
- corridor clarity overlays ā clarityāaware routing
- temporal windows ā timeābounded mission phases
This allows autonomous forms to operate in resonanceāaware environments, adapting behavior based on clarity, drift, and temporal structure.
š§ Example Workflow#
A robotic fish mission might use:
autonomous_form_descriptorfish_extensionfish_hydrodynamicsautonomous_mission_profilefish_mission_profile_extensionautonomous_corridor_definitionautonomous_swarm_state
A drone mission might use:
autonomous_form_descriptordrone_extensiondrone_flight_envelopedrone_energy_and_batteryautonomous_mission_profiledrone_mission_profile_extension
Both share the same core substrate, ensuring consistency across domains.
š± Future Directions#
The RTTāAutonomous ecosystem is designed to evolve toward:
- crossādomain swarms
- clarityāadaptive routing
- ecological restoration robotics
- distributed mission planning
- hybrid morphologies
- realātime RTTāInside feedback loops
This topālevel module provides the conceptual and structural foundation for all future autonomous robotics work in Triadic Frameworks.
