Integrated System for Sensing and Traverse of Cliff Faces

A long duration robotic presence on lunar and planetary surfaces will allow the acquisition of scientifically interesting information from a diverse set of surface and sub-surface sites. The wide range of terrain types including plains, cliffs, sand dunes, and lava tubes will require the development of robotic systems that can adapt to possibly rapidly changing terrain. These systems include si...

Multi-robot Mapping of Lava Tubes

Terrestrial planetary bodies such as Mars and the Moon are known to harbor volcanic terrain with enclosed lava tube conduits and caves. The shielding from cosmic radiation that they provide makes them a potentially hospitable habitat for life. This motivates the need to explore such lava tubes and assess their potential as locations for future human outposts. Such exploration will likely be con...

Scaling Up Decision Theoretic Planning to Planetary Rover Problems

Because of communication limits, planetary rovers must operate autonomously during consequent durations. The ability to plan under uncertainty is one of the main components of autonomy. Previous approaches to planning under uncertainty in NASA applications are not able to address the challenges of future missions, because of several apparent limits. On another side, decision theory provides a s...

Mission Design for Combined Lander-rover Modeling of a Skylight

Introduction: Combined lander-rover modeling is the transformational means for developing high resolution, color, three-dimensional representations of planetary features such as cave entrances and skylights. Lander-rover modeling combines registered overflight imagery with rover-based surface imaging techniques to build highly accurate co-registered models. The models produced by this approach ...

Autonomous And/or Interactive Constraints-based Software Reconfiguration for Planetary Rover

Following our experience in the development of ExOS, the RTAI/Linux-based real-time operating system for the planetary rover ExoMaDeR, we realized that the management of onboard software configuration requires more powerful capabilities than those currently available, especially to react autonomously and in real-time to unexpected events, e.g. faults. Autonomous dynamic software reconfiguration...
