A portable, autonomous, urban reconnaissance robot
Portable mobile robots, in the size class of 20 kg or less, could be extremely valuable as autonomous reconnaissance platforms in urban hostage situations and disaster relief. We have developed a prototype urban robot on a novel chassis with articulated tracks that enable stair climbing and scrambling over rubble. Autonomous navigation capabilities of the robot include stereo vision-based obsta...
متن کاملAutonomous urban reconnaissance using man-portable UGVs
For the Wayfarer Project, funded by the US Army through TARDEC, we have developed technologies that enable manportable PackBot Wayfarer UGVs to perform autonomous reconnaissance in urban terrain. Each Wayfarer UGV can autonomously follow urban streets and building perimeters while avoiding obstacles and building a map of the terrain. Each UGV is equipped with a 3D stereo vision system, a 360-de...
متن کاملPandora: Autonomous Urban Robotic Reconnaissance System
Urban settings represent a challenging environment for teleoperated and autonomous robot systems. We present a new design for a highly terrainable robot system, detailing the major mechanical, electrical and control systems. The Pandora robot system is a tracked robot system with selfcontained computing, power and wireless communications systems. A sensor suite including stereoscopic and panosp...
متن کاملDevelopment of an Autonomous Aerial Reconnaissance System
In preparation for the 2003 International Aerial Robotics Competition (IARC) the Aerial Robotics Club (ARC) at the University of Arizona has designed an autonomous aerial robot. This years aerial system consists of a small-scale airplane with an on-board guidance navigation control system and a ground station of networked computers for mission planning, user interface, and vision related comput...
متن کاملDevelopment of an Autonomous Tactical Reconnaissance Platform
A man-portable, autonomously controlled aerial surveillance platform has been developed. The ultimate goal is to provide a method for obtaining remote sensing data using an inexpensive, expendable device. The Autonomous Tactical Reconnaissance Platform (ATRP) consists of a standard parafoil that carries an instrumentation payload for autonomous flight and remote sensing capabilities for both mi...
