Multi-scale intelligent information processing for multi-robot system based on human-friendly tele-operation

Abstract

Recently, tele-operation using multi-robot system has been discussed from various viewpoints of shared autonomy, intelligent control, formation behaviors, and information visualization. Furthermore, tele-operation systems have been applied to the remote monitoring of dangerous areas for people such as deep seas, nuclear power plants, and disaster-stricken areas. In this paper, we focus on the structured intelligence based on interconnected intelligent functions of map building, localization of mobile robots, 3D reconstruction and visualization, and human-friendly interface for tele-operation.
