Collaborative Research: Center for Safety, Security, and Rescue Robotics

该奖项支持规划一个多大学，多学科的工业/大学合作研究中心（I/UCRC）的安全，安保和救援机器人（C-SSRR）。 C-SSRR将把工业、工业和公共部门的用户聚集在一起，为警察、联邦调查局、联邦应急管理局、消防员、运输安全官员和应急响应人员开展的与大规模伤亡相关的活动提供综合机器人和人工智能解决方案。 对SSRR的需求在9/11事件之后加速，一个新的研究社区正在形成，正如2003年2月第一届IEEE安全，安全和救援机器人研讨会所见证的那样。该中心将建立在计算机科学，工程，工业组织，心理学，公共卫生，以及南佛罗里达大学和明尼苏达大学的海洋科学。 这两个机构共同支持车辆控制，人机交互，传感器和传感器融合的研究计划，结合快速原型设计能力，并访问全国各地的用户和高保真测试站点。

This award supports the planning a multi-university, multi-disciplinary Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) for Safety, Security and Rescue Robots (C-SSRR). C-SSRR will bring together industry, academe, and public sector users together to provide integrative robotics and artificial intelligence solutions for activities conducted by the police, FBI, FEMA, firefighters, transportation safety officials, and emergency responders to mass casualty-related activities. The need for SSRR has accelerated in the aftermath of 9/11 and a new research community is forming, as witnessed by the first IEEE Workshop on Safety, Security and Rescue Robotics in February 2003.The Center will be built upon the knowledge and expertise of multi-disciplinary researchers in computer science, engineering, industrial organization, psychology, public health, and marine sciences at the University of South Florida and the University of Minnesota. Together, the two institutions support a research program in control of vehicles, human-robot interaction, and sensors and sensor fusion combined with rapid prototyping capabilities and access to users and high-fidelity testing sites throughout the country.
