JPL Robotics Meeting Notes
User:vrtnis' notes from meeting with JPL robotics head of robotics team (EELS and Rover)
Mars rover autonomy
- combine approximate kinematic settling with a dual-cost path planner to navigate safely in unstructured environments.
- develop multi-agent capabilities to significantly enhance performance and safety of autonomous operations on Mars.
- engineer the autonomy system to efficiently handle Mars' unpredictable terrain, improving mission success rates.
- incorporate mechanisms for self-diagnosis and repair to ensure long-term functionality with minimal Earth-based support.
Risk-aware planning
- utilize Boole's inequality for risk allocation.
- enhancing decision-making under uncertainty.
- employ predictive analytics to anticipate and mitigate potential risks.
- allowing for dynamic re-planning and risk management.
