Methodology of action for mobile robot assistance in human daily life and emergencies

Aim of project
The main aim of the project is to build a system which allows to control a swarm of robots. The task for the robots is to help people in diff erent situations.

In order to solve the problems, advanced methods and algorithms should be used. For example: control algorithms, optimisation algorithms, path planning methods, genetic and evolution algorithms, theory of automata, neural networks and fuzzy control.

Robots should perform uphill or hazardous tasks. They should be used when human life is in danger e.g. disasters, terrorist attacks, contamination. The use of the robots allows to save human life.

Expected results
The efficiency of the methods will be proven. Experiments with the use of a team of four robots will be performed. Inspections, life-saving tasks will be undertaken by the robots.

The Expected results are:
Development of new sensor systems;

Development of new mobile robots navigation methods;

Implementation of control methods using MRROC++ program;

Articles in scientific journals and at conferences.
