Amsterdam Oxford joint rescue forces - Team description paper - Virtual Robot competition - Rescue Simulation league - RoboCup 2011

摘要

With the progress made in active exploration, the robots of the Joint Rescue Forces are capable of making deliberative decisions about the distribution of exploration locations over the team. Experiments have been done which include information exchange between team-members at rendez-vous points and dynamic role switching between relays and explorers. In the previous competition exploration was demonstrated with large robots with advanced mobility, such as the Kenaf and the AirRobot. This year our mapping algorithms are extended to be able to explore with the smaller AR.Drone, a flying robot used in the International Micro Air Vehicle competition. Further, progress will be demonstrated in automatic victim detection.
