From the Ted Talk by Robin Murphy: These robots come to the rescue after a disaster

Unscramble the Blue Letters


The biggest problem is not making the rootbs salelmr, though. It's not mikang them more heat-resistant. It's not making more sensors. The biggest problem is the data, the informatics, because these people need to get the right data at the right time.

So wouldn't it be great if we could have ertpexs immediately access the robots without having to waste any time of driving to the site, so whoever's there, use their robots over the Internet. Well, let's think about that. Let's think about a chemical train derailment in a rural county. What are the odds that the experts, your chemical engineer, your railroad transportation engineers, have been trained on whatever UAV that particular coutny happens to have? Probably, like, none. So we're using these kinds of interfaces to allow people to use the robots without knowing what robot they're using, or even if they're using a rboot or not. What the robots give you, what they give the experts, is data.
