AWARE project: cooperating autonomous robots with WSN











Within the EU sponsored project AWARE project, autonomous robotics systems and wireless sensor networks are jointly considered. The project involves the development of co-operative robotics functionalities.
The platform will offer self-deployment, selfconfiguration and self-repairing features by
means of cooperating autonomous helicopters. These features are highly relevant
in natural and urban environments without pre-existing infrastructure or in situations where the infrastructure has been damaged or destroyed.
Here below you can find the highl level architecture of the system


Two validation scenarios are being considered:
DisasterManagement/CivilSecurity and Filming applications.

The project is coordinated by Anibal Ollero from AICIA, Sevilla, Spain
