چکیده

The recent upsurge in interest in autonomous robots for combat applications has focused considerable attention on several of the obvious technical issues (e.g, target recognition, autonomous navigation, route planning). However, several technical issues exist which remain unapproached and, in some cases, even unacknowledged by the robotics community. This paper explores three such issues: (1) robot fault tolerance, (2) robot security and (3) multi-robot coordination. These issues are discussed in terms of the technology limitations and the research issues associated with those limitations. A common message which occurs several times during this discussion denotes the importance in modular implementation and well defined interfaces between subsystems in the development of autonomous combat robots.

Analyzing Human Trust of Autonomous Systems in Hazardous Environments

Autonomous systems are becoming more prevalent in our everyday lives. From agent software that collects news for us or bids for us in online auctions to robots that vacuum our floors and may help care for us when we grow old, autonomous agents promise to play a greater role in our lives in the future. Yet, there is ample evidence that many people do not trust autonomous systems – especially in ...

Analysis of Multi-Robots Transportation with Multi-objective PSO Algorithm in an Artificial Capital Market

In this paper, to analyze the transport of autonomous robots, an artificial Capital market is used. Capital market is considered as a pier which loading and unloading of cargo is done. Autonomous robots load and unload from the ship to the warehouse wharf or vice versa. All the robots have the ability of transporting the loads, but depending on loads and the location of unloading (or loading) a...
