TY - JOUR PY - 2012// TI - Innovative systems for human supervisory control of unmanned vehicles JO - Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomic Society annual meeting A1 - Clare, Andrew S. A1 - Ryan, Jason C. A1 - Jackson, Kimberly F. A1 - Cummings, Mary L. SP - 531 EP - 535 VL - 56 IS - 1 N2 - The development of Unmanned Vehicles (UVs) with increasing autonomy has enabled a transition from teleoperation to Human Supervisory Control (HSC). In this demonstration, participants can test three innovative operator interfaces for HSC of UVs. The first system allows users to control a Micro Air Vehicle (MAV) via a hand-held device, such as an iPhone®, through high-level waypoint commands and fine-grained nudge controls. The second system enables a single operator to collaborate with an automated planner to control multiple heterogeneous UVs from a laptop-sized display for searching for, tracking and engaging moving ground targets. The third system is designed to aid in planning on naval aircraft carrier decks, serving as a decision support tool for a supervisor overseeing and scheduling the activity of people, vehicles and unmanned vehicles working in this complex and uncertain environment.
