We present Dolphin, an extensible programming language for autonomous vehicle networks. A Dolphin program expresses an orchestrated execution of tasks defined compositionally for multiple vehicles. Building upon the base case of elementary one-vehicle tasks, the built-in operators include support fo…
Mission planning and execution for autonomous vehicles is crucial for their effective and efficient operation during scientific exploration, or search and rescue missions, to mention a few. Automated Planning has shown to be a useful tool for “high level” mission planning, that is, allocating tasks…
Supervision and control of Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) has traditionally been focused on an operator determining a priori the sequence of waypoints of a single vehicle for a mission. As AUVs become more ubiquitous as a scientific tool, we envision the need for controlling multiple vehicles…
