The project will develop an integrated multi-vehicle routing and trajectory planning method for environments that change based on the operations of the vehicles. This is particularly relevant for mining applications, where new routes open up as parts of the mine are dug out, or some routes become blocked due to the pile of excess material produced by drilling vehicles. Other applications including inspection of complex structures and routing for crop harvesting have a similar problem structure.
The project aims to:
More importantly, it will be an important step in increasing the level of automation obtainable for robots operating in harsh environments, in which human workers are exposed to hazardous conditions.
