Abstract
This session included five presentations on various aspects pertaining cooperation of groups of either autonomous flying robots or autonomous ground robots, to enhance the capabilities for these when viewed as integrated systems.
The first paper, Demonstrating the benefits of cooperation for a UAV team performing vision based feature localisation by David T. Cole, Paul Thompson, Ali Haydar Goktogan and Salah Sukkarieh demonstrated cooperation results of a team of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) with varying levels of cooperation: (i) no communication at all, (ii) feature state communication only, and (iii) finally communicating feature information and mission utilities. The mission that the team had to perform was to localize a number of ground based features, about which it has some prior knowledge.
