Dynamic Human-Robot Teams

Pickup teams of robots and humans can adapt to unknown, dynamic and adversarial environments, and efficiently execute complex tasks in a robust manner. Both human and robot team members may have only minimal knowledge of each other’s behavior but are able to team effectively. Human members might plan while robots might sense and execute tasks. Dynamic and unknown obstacles, robot malfunctions, disruptions in communication, and changes in team resources are all handled gracefully and efficiently with team members adopting different roles best suited to efficiently executing the overall mission under the prevailing conditions. Research is demonstrated and evaluated in a treasure hunt scenario.
