Internet Rescue Robots for Disaster Management

Abstract

Multiple unmanned air/ground vehicles heterogeneous cooperation is a novel and challenging filed. Heterogeneous cooperative techniques can widen the application fields of unmanned air or ground vehicles, and enhance the effectiveness of implementing detection, search and rescue tasks. This paper mainly focused on the key issues in multiple unmanned air/ground vehicles heterogeneous cooperation, including heterogeneous flocking, formation control, formation stability, network control, and actual applications. The main problems and future directions in this field were also analyzed in detail. These innovative technologies can significantly enhance the effectiveness of implementing complicated tasks, which definitely provide a series of novel breakthroughs for the intelligence, integration and advancement of future robot systems. unmanned air vehicle (UAV), unmanned ground vehicle (UGV), heterogeneous cooperation Citation: Duan H B, Liu S Q.
