Abstract

Success of teleoperation tasks for mobile robots in disaster scenarios depends largely on the skills of the operator. This article proposes a solution to facilitate this task with two UGVs working together in a master-slave structure. The slave robot is used as an external mobile camera, being able to select the best view for each situation, as you can do in video games. This method has several advantages for overcoming challenging situations that can be found in the mission and it has been tested in the Eurathlon Challenge with good results, completing the tasks in less time and with less stress for operators.
