The main focus will be on User and Enterprise. These USE principles will be based on the relevant design requirements for the test case. User

  • Control: In case of an emergency the system must have te possibility to be shut down.
  • Care: While the robots have interaction with opeople which are wounded and/or in critical condition. These people need to be handled with care. These people also need to be protected against further harm.
  • Robustness: The robots have to be able to operate in destructed areas which means they have to be able to take a beating. Also if they are being operated from a distance there will be no means of repair.

Enterprise

  • Simplicity: The beautiful thing about swarm technology is the fact that with a large number of simple robots something big can be achieved. The simpler the individual robot the cheaper the production of it, which makes it an intersting technology for companies to invest in.
  • Flexibility: If the robots and software can be used for several scenarios and goals investment will be even more interesting. This means it is of high importance to create a universal software solution for robots which can be used in as much environments as possible. The Freeduino based robots take some of this into account by using track tyres.
  • Efficiency: The robots need to work efficiently. As area's need to be checked it is important the robots do not check the same twice and do not disturb one another. This also means the robots do not execute tasks which are not necessary which will in turn make sure the robots will last longer. A high efficiency can be achieved using good communication and efficient use of the sensors on each robot.
