In this lab students begin working with a new simulation paradigm and
baseline example mission. The uField architecture is introduced,
involving a shoreside MOOS community for C2, and multiple vehicle MOOS
communities, one for each vehicle. Users will be asked to examine the
baseline mission from several angles: the changes in launch structure,
C2 control, mission scoping, and post-mission analysis. Students will
be introduced to the concept meta and plug files for creation of target
mission launch files. Building on the previous lab involving event
handling, a simple two vehicle mission will be built, with vehicles
periodically returning to a charging station.
