A Multi-Robot Platform for Robotic Triage Combining Onboard Sensing and Foundation Models
Jason Hughes, Marcel Hussing, Edward Zhang +24
This report presents a heterogeneous robotic system designed for remote primary triage in mass-casualty incidents (MCIs). The system employs a coordinated air-ground team of unmann…
HALO: High-Altitude Language-Conditioned Monocular Aerial Exploration and Navigation
Yuezhan Tao, Dexter Ong, Fernando Cladera +4
We demonstrate real-time high-altitude aerial metric-semantic mapping and exploration using a monocular camera paired with a global positioning system (GPS) and an inertial measure…
Heterogeneous Robot Collaboration in Unstructured Environments with Grounded Generative Intelligence
Zachary Ravichandran, Fernando Cladera, Ankit Prabhu +6
While heterogeneous teams have typically been designed for well-specified missions with known semantics, generative intelligence, i.e., large language models (LLMs) and vision lang…
Adaptive Per-Tree Canopy Volume Estimation Using Mobile LiDAR in Structured and Unstructured Orchards
Ali Abedi, Fernando Cladera, Mohsen Farajijalal +1
We present a real-time system for per-tree canopy volume estimation using mobile LiDAR data collected during routine robotic navigation. Unlike prior approaches that rely on static…
Distilling On-device Language Models for Robot Planning with Minimal Human Intervention
Zachary Ravichandran, Ignacio Hounie, Fernando Cladera +3
Large language models (LLMs) provide robots with powerful contextual reasoning abilities and a natural human interface. Yet, current LLM-enabled robots typically depend on cloud-ho…
Deploying Foundation Model-Enabled Air and Ground Robots in the Field: Challenges and Opportunities
Zachary Ravichandran, Fernando Cladera, Jason Hughes +5
The integration of foundation models (FMs) into robotics has enabled robots to understand natural language and reason about the semantics in their environments. However, existing F…
