Research project

Trustworthy human-swarm partnerships in extreme environments

Project overview

The aim of this project was to understand the contextual factors and technical approaches underlying trustworthy human-swarm teams. 

The project drew on co-creation with partners and potential users to generate potential use cases and operator-centred requirements. AI-based algorithms were used to estimate the swarm state and provide recommendations for control actions to the human operators in extreme environments. 

The trustworthiness of the system was evaluated in a user study with a proof-of-concept HAC simulation and testing platform. 

Further information is available from the UKRI Trustworthy Autonomous Systems (TAS) Hub website.
