Evaluation of the Scout Robot for Urban Search and Rescue
نویسندگان
چکیده
A group of miniature mobile robots called Scouts were tested in the Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) course used in the RoboCup Rescue competition at IJCAI 2001. This testing was to evaluate the utility of using small robots with limited mobility and sensing constraints in the unstructured and chaotic environments present in disaster areas where USAR operations are required. The Scouts and their performance in the course are described. Finally, potential areas of future work that were revealed by these tests are discussed.

Robot Urban Search and Rescue is a new task in robotics that is challenging not only robot hardware, but also humanrobot interfaces. It is a real-world challenge in an unstructured environment that requires cooperation between a remote robot and a human operator. The study of humanrobot interfaces is still in its infancy, and most of the urban search & rescue systems field so far use an ad hoc ...

Military, police, fire brigade and rescue services need to evaluate robots as an aid to remove humans from risk, to perform more efficiently or at lower cost and to enable missions unsuited to humans. The benefits gained by using robots have to be valued against costs for acquisition, integration, training and maintenance as well as mission efficiency and reliability. This study has investigate...
متن کاملAutonomous stair-hopping with Scout robots
Search and rescue operations in large disaster sites require quick gathering of relevant information. Both the knowledge of the location of victims and the environmental/structural conditions must be available to safely and efficiently guide rescue personnel. A major hurdle for robots in such scenarios is stairs. A system for autonomous surmounting of stairs is proposed in which a Scout robot j...
