Inter- and Intra-Team Coordination from High-level Specifications (IITCHS)
IITCHS is a collaboration between MIT and MIT Lincoln Laboratory to develop and field test methods for planning and coordinating teams of autonomous systems based on spatial and temporal constraints and goals. The IITCHS framework was developed by Lincoln researchers and integrated into the MIT MOOS-IvP autonomy framework by MIT student(s). Field testing in the Fall of 2021 consisted of four Heron USVs in a coordinated mission on the Charles River. This will be extended to nine Heron USVs in 2022 with other platform types included in field exercises. The overall project goals are to (a) validate the IITCHS framework and algorithms on field-tested platforms, (b) provide existing MOOS-IvP autonomy users with a temporal planning tool with the integration layer implemented, and (c) provide existing or potential IITCH users with a platform autonomy system with a mature integration layer.
