Abstract

AbstractLocalization capabilities represent fundamental supports in emergency situations. Although localization has been largely investigated in the field of mobile robotics and produced a large variety of applications, in emergency response scenarios it still remain a challenge, due to the demanding operating conditions. In this contribution, an indoor localization framework for rescue teams is presented. The peculiarity of the proposed system relies on the integration between human operators and robots. Moreover, a network composed by RFID tags is used to structure the environment and to reduce positioning uncertainties. The paper represents a preliminary study and presents mainly a conceptual architecture for rescue localization.
