Abstract :
Search and Rescue (SAR) missions for unexpected catastrophic incidents requires fast response and should provide safety especially that they lead to extreme exposure to risk of either potential victims or elements belonging to first responders team. New solutions based on robots and different techniques have been used to enhance the SAR missions in the last decade. This paper addresses a proposed solution that can be used to support collaborative teamwork between teams of robots and human in safety missions.
