ABSTRACT
In this paper, we describe a Human-Robot Interface (HRI) software architecture designed to enable teams of operators to share tasking for multiple unmanned vehicles and systems. Many existing robotic systems are controlled using specially-designed interfaces, which becomes problematic for operator teams controlling multiple heterogeneous systems. We propose a solution that enables teams of operators to control multiple heterogeneous vehicles and systems using a common command and control environment. This environment supports task sharing and handoff and was shown in evaluations to improve team efficiency.

ROS-Enabled Collaborative Navigation and Manipulation with Heterogeneous Robots
AbstractOne of the most difficult tasks for a mobile robot is navigation. Navigation and manipulation of heterogeneous robots are becoming more important in the field of industry, defence, search and rescue, etc. This paper mainly focuses on the ...
Coordinating heterogeneous teams of robots using temporal symbolic planning
The efficient coordination of a team of heterogeneous robots is an important requirement for exploration, rescue, and disaster recovery missions. In this paper, we present a novel approach to target assignment for heterogeneous teams of robots. It goes ...
Analysis of autonomous cooperative assembly using coordination schemes by heterogeneous robots using a control basis approach
Robotic technology is quickly evolving allowing robots to perform more complex tasks in less structured environments with more flexibility and autonomy. Heterogeneous multi-robot teams are more common as the specialized abilities of individual robots ...
