Abstract
Abstract: At the University of Siegen a robot airship for cooperation with a heterogeneous multi-robot team is built to perform search and rescue as well as exploration missions. The airship control is based on an aerodynamic model derived from real airship models. The airship is able to fly autonomously over the operation field and is sharing sensor information with the ground based robots and a tele-operator.
