Assessing operator strategies for real-time replanning of multiple unmanned vehicles
نویسندگان
چکیده
Future unmanned vehicles systems will invert the operator-to-vehicle ratio so that one operator controls a decentralized network of heterogeneous unmanned vehicles. This study examines the impact of allowing an operator to adjust the rate of prompts to view automation-generated plans on system performance and operator workload. Results showed that the majority of operators chose to adjust the replan prompting rate. The initial replan prompting rate had a significant framing effect on the replan prompting rates chosen throughout a scenario. Higher initial replan prompting rates led to significantly lower system performance. Operators successfully self-regulated their task-switching behavior to moderate their workload.

The realization of cooperative Multiple Unmanned Marine Vehicles (MUMVs) is a real challenge, due to the conditions of the marine environment. In this paper we show the necessary steps of developments to enable already existing, single autonomous vehicles to participate in a team mission. We describe the design of the control software and put an emphasis on the task of Online Replanning of the ...
متن کاملEvolution-Based Deliberative Planning for Cooperating Unmanned Ground Vehicles in a Dynamic Environment
Many challenges remain in the development of tactical planning systems that will enable automated, cooperative replanning of routes and mission assignments for multiple unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) under changing environmental and tactical conditions. We have developed such a planning system that uses an evolutionary algorithm to assign waypoints and mission goals to multiple UGVs so that th...
متن کاملFlight and In-Water Experiments of Autonomy and Human Interface Technologies with Multiple Unmanned Systems
This paper describes operator, flight, and in-water experiments with autonomy and human interface technologies for management of multiple unmanned air, sea surface, and undersea vehicles. The vehicles were managed by a single operator based on high-level mission objectives, constraints, risks, and priorities. The scenarios explored contingencies and changes in tasking that required both operato...
