Secure Control Architectures for Maritime Robotics

Abstract

We propose a two-year project in which we will collaborate closely with stakeholders in the maritimerobotics community to research, develop and distribute an open control architecture that willprovide dramatically improved capabilities in security and design. These two topics are especiallyimportant for maritime robotics applications, wherein the physical systems are costly to acquire,maintain, and operate. It is vital that scientists, engineers, and other users of these systems haveaccess to high-quality architecture concepts that allow for software-only testing of robots prior todeployment, as well as best-in-class security features to protect access to the robots when they arein the field.
