1. A system for planning and controlling missions for robotic devices, comprising:
a mission control computer comprising at least a first memory, a first processor and a first set of programming instructions stored in the first memory and operating on the first processor; and a plurality of robotic devices each comprising at least a second memory, a second processor and a second set of programming instructions stored in the second memory and operating on the second processor, and each robotic device further comprising a plurality of hardware sensor devices adapted to produce sensor data based on observation of an environment around the respective robotic device; wherein the mission control computer receives sensor information from a first robotic device via a data communication network and sends mission instructions to the first robotic device via the data communication network, the mission instructions determined by the first set of programmable instructions and comprising at least a third set of programming instructions to be executed by the second processor operating on the robotic device; further wherein the mission control computer comprises, as a subset of the first set of programmable instructions, a mission control software comprising at least a plurality of software modules adapted to receive, process, and transmit programming instructions for robotic devices via a network. |
