Abstract:
To increase safety and extend human rescuers capabilities during a rescue mission a robot is deployed at a rescue site for exploration purposes. To improve a teleoperated rescue robot performance, we develop an automatic pilot system which recommends an operator a safe path to a chosen target. We manage the proposed path from static balance standpoint, based on our previous works. This paper concentrates on path search algorithm in a simulated 3D debris environment, called Random Step Environment.
