Description
The ability for an operator to control multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is an emerging area of need for research. It is also one that is highly challenging. This thesis devised a novel way to represent UAV capabilities to the human operator to improve their cognitive abilities in controlling multiple UAVs in missions such as search and rescue. This PhD Cotutelle research program was a collaboration between QUT and Telecom Bretagne in France. Through numerous experimental trials held in both countries, the results showed that the mission operator’s cognitive abilities improved through greater awareness of the UAVs’ autonomy and capabilities.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
Full-text downloads:
Full-text downloads displays the total number of times this work’s files (e.g., a PDF) have been downloaded from QUT ePrints as well as the number of downloads in the previous 365 days. The count includes downloads for all files if a work has more than one.
