GRK 1362: Cooperative, Adaptive and Responsive Monitoring in Mixed Mode Environments

从简单的温度传感器到复杂的视觉系统，大量具有截然不同的计算和通信资源的通信传感器如何合作监测其环境？多个陆地、水上和空中自动驾驶车辆如何相互导航和协调，以及如何与固定传感器和人类使命管理器协调？如何将这些自主移动的传感器平台团队用于灾难情况下的合作搜索和救援任务？

How can large numbers of communicating sensors with vastly different computing and communication resources, ranging from simple temperature sensors to complex vision systems, cooperate to monitor their environment? How can multiple land, water and airborne autonomous vehicles navigate and coordinate with each other and with stationary sensors and a human mission manager? How can these teams of autonomous mobile sensor platforms be used in cooperative search and rescue missions in a disaster situation?
