In particular, the interconnections and interactions between the basic modules of the control architecture, i.e. mission controller, execution controller, execution level, path planner, and execution monitor, are verified.
This paper presents the software architecture and the Mission Control System (MCS) used in ICTINEUAUV, a small autonomous vehicle able to perform this kind of inspection missions.
These missions are simulated using a navigation and control architecture with errors consistent with the performance of current commercially available sensors and actuators.
They wanted to future-proof mission control by using an open, distributed, upgradable, and scalable systems architecture built to incorporate not-yet-invented technologies.
Simulative and field trials validates the control architecture enabling the management of standard USV missions.
SLAM estimates are thereafter inserted in the control architecture to increase the precision in the navigation and mission tasks.
This architecture consists of four separate processes working in parallel at Mission Control and achieving buy-in for plans sequentially instead of simultaneously from all members of the team.
In this paper, the principal functionalities required to the Mission Control module of marine robots will be drafted, focusing on the design and implementation of a high level control architecture layer.
This paper proposes an Intelligent Control Architecture (ICA) to enable multiple collaborating marine vehicles to autonomously carry out underwater intervention missions.
This architecture establishes a flexible structure and guidelines that orient the implementation of future components for the mission control system of the ROV.
Mission Control looked concerned.
