Experience in System Design for Human-Robot Teaming in Urban Search and Rescue
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper describes experience with applying a user-centric design methodology in developing systems for human-robot teaming in Urban Search & Rescue. A human-robot team consists of several semi-autonomous robots (rovers/UGVs, microcopter/UAVs), several humans at an off-site command post (mission commander, UGV operators) and one on-site human (UAV operator). This system has been developed in close cooperation with several rescue organizations, and has been deployed in a real-life tunnel accident use case. The human-robot team jointly explores an accident site, communicating using a multi-modal team interface, and spoken dialogue. The paper describes the development of this complex socio-technical system per se, as well as recent experience in evaluating the performance of this system.

One of the most important applications of planning technology has been – and continues to be – guiding robotic agents in an autonomous fashion through complex problem scenarios. Increasingly, real-world scenarios are evolving in a way that includes humans as actors in the loop along with the robot and the planning system. These humans are stakeholders whose roles may vary between that of a comm...
متن کاملGame-Based Design of Human-Robot Interfaces for Urban Search and Rescue
Robot Urban Search and Rescue is a new task in robotics that is challenging not only robot hardware, but also humanrobot interfaces. It is a real-world challenge in an unstructured environment that requires cooperation between a remote robot and a human operator. The study of humanrobot interfaces is still in its infancy, and most of the urban search & rescue systems field so far use an ad hoc ...
