-{{:research:sherpa.png?200|}} The SHERPA project focuses to support search and rescue activities in a real-world hostile environment like the alpine environment. The robots used in this projects consist of a mixed group of ground and aerial robots, who are guided by the "humanrescuer, also called busy genius. +The goal of SHERPA is to develop a mixed ground and aerial robotic platform to support search and rescue activities in a hostile environment such as encountered in alpine rescue. The group of ground and aerial robots must collaborate with the human rescuer and each other to achieve common goalsThey must also be able to support human rescuers while they are occupied with the rescuing activity (and thus unable to supervise the platform), requiring a high level of autonomy.  
-The research activity here focuses on how the "busy genius" and the SHERPA robots interact and collaborate with their own features and capabilities toward the achievement of a common goal.+ 
 +SHERPA will construct a platform with emphasis on robust autonomy, natural interaction, and effective collaboration strategies that utilize the heterogeneous capabilities of the different actors; human, ground, and aerial vehicles.  
 + 
 +The objective of the Intelligent Autonomous Systems group in this project is to build an integrated programming framework for hybrid knowledge representation which combines different information sources, including natural language instructions, gestures and visual observations into single frame workFurthermore, we will investigate and develop control mechanisms and reasoning engines which are suitable for flexible control and reactive decision-making in the SHERPA domain.

-By providing a mix of advanced control and cognitive capabilities which characterizes this system, the rescuer will be supported bye improving his awareness of the rescue scene.
