This technical report, prepared by the Robotics Division of the U.S. Army Tank-Automotive Command (TACOM), describes communications interoperability (CI) between different robotic vehicle systems, and also different robotic modules. It does this by proposing protocols for a communications interface standard for robotic vehicle communication systems. Interoperability is critical to the Army's robotics program. Achieving CI will provide three major benefits. The first is the more effective deployment of robotic systems. The second is the significant enhancement of testing and demonstrations. And the third is a reduction in the cost of developing and building these systems. The primary goal was to propose a communications interface standard, consisting of a set of protocols and a unique message format, that will lead to CI. |
