چکیده

Remote operations in harsh environments, such as those found in the search & rescue and humanitarian demining domains, achieve better results when a strong interaction among users and robots is considered. In addition, robots should be disposable and robust, which can be achieved through parsimonious design. This paper presents a multi-agent system to solve the n-humans and m-robots problem. In addition, a disposable and robust mobile robot for demanding all-terrain environments is presented. Preliminary experimental results obtained with the physical robot suggest that the system is able to guarantee a close interaction between users and robot.

Developing an Adaptive Robotic Assistant for Close Proximity Human-Robot Collaboration in Space

In this paper, we present a framework for an adaptive and risk-aware robot motion planning and control, and discuss how such a framework could handle uncertainty in human workers’ actions and robot localization. We build on our prior investigation, where we describe how uncertainty in human actions can be modeled using the entropy rate in a Markov Decision Process. We then describe how we can i...
