MVWT GOTChA

Goals Design, implement and document a common MVWT infrastructure that supports 2004 SURF projects Expand the MVWT facility to include rooftop operation	Technical Challenges Dropped packets in vision system, with little documentation of current configuration Heterogeneous platforms with custo-mized, legacy software solutions No identified solution for rooftop positioning system No dedicated MVWT II team
Objectives Common software architecture that supports code reuse between hetero-geneous MVWT vehicles Command and control infrastructure for controlling vehicles, logging data, visualizing system state; compatible with RoboFlag software 12 vehicle capability in 12 Steele, with robust vision-based positioning 24 vehicle capability on Steele roof, with 10 cm accurate positioning	Approach Team-oriented organization to work on common infrastructure needs Use CS/EE/ME 75 project mgmt toolset Early identification of common architecture, so that tools will fit together Midterm design review and AFOSR demonstration to drive timeline
