Mixed Initiative Control of Unmanned Air and Ocean Going Vehicles: Models, Tools and Experimentation

Abstract

The problem of mixed initiative control of unmanned air and ocean going vehicles is discussed, a formal mixed initiative control framework for networked vehicles is introduced and tools for operational deployments are presented, together with lessons learned from deployments at sea with autonomous underwater and surface vehicles. This is done in the context of the developments from the Underwater Systems and Technologies Laboratory from Porto University in Portugal.
