We present a Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) framework specifically designed for planetary exploration. Our work is based on PROMETHEE II, which allows operators to add task-specific criteria and conditions. We extended this algorithm to improve its resource usage by reducing the number of can…
Teams of mobile robots will play a crucial role in future missions to explore the surfaces of extraterrestrial bodies. Setting up infrastructure and taking scientific samples are expensive tasks when operating in distant, challenging, and unknown environments. In contrast to current single-robot spa
A robotic system for search and rescue missions needs to efficiently explore and map new areas. In this paper, we present an integrated exploration strategy with active loop closing, which balances between the exploration speed and map quality. Specifically, it finds a trade-off between moving towar
