What is a multi-UAV system?
- airborne
- two or more UAVs, possibly also heterogeneous
- have to share knowledge
- information exchange during operation
- indirect or direct communication
- don't have to share a common objective
- collaboration or coordination
What are the building blocks of an autonomous multi-UAV system?
- networking, some form of communication
- sensing system: cameras, ultra-sonic
- interaction with the environment
- sharing representation
- bottom-up/top-down
- bottom up: team of individuals
- top down: designed as a team
- fail-operational or fail-safe
- swarm of simple systems/swarm with a leader/swarm of highly intelligent systems
What are the design challenges?
- technical challenges, see before
- mission-specific or one system fits all?
- system integration
- legal issues, regulations
- responsibility
- privacy
- public perception, acceptance
Is autonomy desirable? When?
- yes, for a large number of UAVs
- for a large area, remote location
- if problem is well-defined and easy
- no, to avoid legal issues
- if problem is complex, not trackable
