چکیده

Technologies for Reliable Autonomous Control (TRAC) is a DARPA sponsored effort under the Software Enabled Control (SEC) initiative. The goal of T U C is to develop and demonstrate a fundamentally different approach to controlling uninhabited air vehicles (UAVs) that will enable greater mission capability, higher reliability and safety, and greater adaptability to vehicle and mission environment variability.

The TRAC Mission Manager Autonomous Control Executive 1

Present autonomy technologies do not compensate for a vehicle's structural, perceptual and control limitations through reflexive responses and rapid adaptation as a pilot typically does. For Uninhabited Air Vehicles (UAV's) to have more general application the mishap rates must be much reduced. Therefore the vehicle control systems must be capable of rigorously analyzing and predicting in real-...

An Open Control Platform for Reconfigurable, Distributed, Hierarchical Control Systems

Complex control systems for autonomous vehicles require integrating new control algorithms with a variety of different component technologies and resources. These components are often supported on different types of hardware platforms and operating systems and often must interact in a distributed environment (e.g., in communication with a groundstation, mothership, or other UAVs in a swarm). At...
