Abstract
Ground robotic vehicles are continuing to improve in intelligence, mobility, and reliability. Today, more than 3000 ground robotic vehicles are being used by the U. S. Army in the field. These vehicles' duties range from vehicle security to IED detection and neutralization. However, the current operation of ground robotic vehicles are remote control and tele-operational. Underdeveloped adaptive and contextual reasoning algorithms and testing methodologies are limiting their abilities to operate more autonomously. An evaluation framework and a set of metrics need to be developed to enable the research results and value in algorithms to be assessed. In this paper, a simple measure of collaboration between Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV) is introduced. The measure is designed to be simple enough to test most all UGVs against. Case studies are used as examples.
