ROBOTIC & INTEROPERABILITY FOCUS GROUP Where We Are
ROBOTIC AUTONOMY “Ability to perform desired functions without continuous human guidance” (Dr. Scott Fish, Army Chief Scientist, AUVSI, February 1, 2011) • Lack of RELIABILITY in Prototype Autonomy to Garner TRUST • U.S. May Getting Squeezed Out of the Lead Systems Interoperability • DOD UGVs • Mobility • Manipulation ROBOTICS Ascension to Increased National Security Collaborative Autonomy Supervised Autonomy Tele-op With Intelligence Tele-op Without Intelligence Remote Control
GROUND ROBOTICS 5 YEARS AGO Autonomous Systems Seemed Just Around the Corner
ROBOTIC SYSTEMS INTEROPERABILITY • “Joint” Does Not Solve Title 10 Stovepipes • Absence of Structure, Funding, Incentives SEIZE THE OPPORTUNITY North Alabama Uniquely Postured for Future Leadership Role Cross-Domain Collaboration Common Control Scalable, Modular, Plug & Play Human-Machine Interface Many Aspects of Current Approach are Adverse to NATIONAL SECURITY X-DOMAIN First Humanoid in Space Robonaut 2 is scheduled to launch on Discovery to the ISS on February 24, 2011
