The
video describes
a typical mission
of the mobile robot Merry Porter, designed by Genova
Robot srl with the
collaboration of the University
of Genova.
Merry
Porter runs ETHNOS for real-task scheduling, and SARTOS
for the real-time selection of tasks to be scheduled depending on the
current
operating context.
ETHNOS
was executed as a distributed real-time operating system on the
robots of the Italian ART
team
during the RoboCup
World Championships Paris 1998, Stockholm 1999 (second prize), and
Melbourne 2000, as well as in the European
Chanpionship Amsterdam (second prize). ETHNOS,
“borrowed” from the opposite team Golem Team, won
the second prize in Melbourne 2000. The
video, taken from the short film Robocup 99
by Mika
Taanila shows the final against
Iran in Stockholm 1999
The
video shows ANSER (Airport Non-stop Surveillance Expert Robot), an
intelligent autonomous robot for surveillance relying on ETHNOS for its
real-time multi-agent architecture.
The video has been shot at the Villanova D'Albenga Airport, where the
robot has been tested in 2006. ANSER has been developed by DIST -
University of Genova.
