Abstract
Nowadays, there exists a great interest in development of mobile and teleoperated or even autonomous robots, which could replace humans in dangerous tasks. Information management and system architecture in these can stand for a difficult issue even with a single teleoperated robot. Considering a system of multiple human and robot entities working together in teams at different locations, complexity of information management rapidly grows. This paper sketches an information exchange and handling design in heterogenous human-robot teams, employing teleoperation of semi-autonomous robots and humans in rescue test-cases. The paper addresses analysis of the system design as well as particular tasks specifics connected with this issue.
