abstract = {We present a method to dramatically reduce the level of effort and lead time
required to take autonomy algorithms from initial development to field
experiments when using shared assets. The method leverages the Docker
containerization environment coupled with automatic configuration and
deployment modules and a standardized autonomy framework. The result is a
quickly-deployable, easily reconfigurable, and vehicle-agnostic autonomy
solution for use when assets are shared and repeatedly re-baselining the
system is necessary. For an initial implementation of the containerization
system, we leverage the Mission-Oriented Operating Suite - Interval
Programming autonomy framework.}}
