Every day, burning buildings threaten the lives of occupants and first responders trying to save them. Quick action is of essence, but some areas might not be accessible or too dangerous to enter. Robotic systems have become a promising addition to firefighting, but at this stage, they are mostly manually controlled, which is error-prone and requires specially trained personal. We present two systems for autonomous firefighting from air and ground we developed for the Mohamed Bin Zayed International Robotics Challenge (MBZIRC) 2020. The systems use LiDAR for reliable localization within narrow, potentially GNSS-restricted environments while maneuvering close to obstacles. Measurements from LiDAR and thermal cameras are fused to track fires, while relative navigation ensures successful extinguishing. We analyze and discuss our successful participation during the MBZIRC 2020, present further experiments, and provide insights into our lessons learned from the competition.

Autonomous robotic systems for various applications including transport, mobile manipulation, and disaster response are becoming more and more complex. Evaluating and analyzing such systems is challenging. Robotic competitions are designed to benchma
rk complete robotic systems on complex state-of-the-art tasks. Participants compete in defined scenarios under equal conditions. We present our UGV solution developed for the Mohamed Bin Zayed International Robotics Challenge 2020. Our hard- and software components to address the challenge tasks of wall building and fire fighting are integrated into a fully autonomous system. The robot consists of a wheeled omnidirectional base, a 6 DoF manipulator arm equipped with a magnetic gripper, a highly efficient storage system to transport box-shaped objects, and a water spraying system to fight fires. The robot perceives its environment using 3D LiDAR as well as RGB and thermal camera-based perception modules, is capable of picking box-shaped objects and constructing a pre-defined wall structure, as well as detecting and localizing heat sources in order to extinguish potential fires. A high-level planner solves the challenge tasks using the robot skills. We analyze and discuss our successful participation during the MBZIRC 2020 finals, present further experiments, and provide insights to our lessons learned.
Constructing large structures with robots is a challenging task with many potential applications that requires mobile manipulation capabilities. We present two systems for autonomous wall building that we developed for the Mohamed Bin Zayed Internati
onal Robotics Challenge 2020. Both systems autonomously perceive their environment, find bricks, and build a predefined wall structure. While the UGV uses a 3D LiDAR-based perception system which measures brick poses with high precision, the UAV employs a real-time camera-based system for visual servoing. We report results and insights from our successful participation at the MBZIRC 2020 Finals, additional lab experiments, and discuss the lessons learned from the competition.
Visually guided control of micro aerial vehicles (MAV) demands for robust real-time perception, fast trajectory generation, and a capable flight platform. We present a fully autonomous MAV that is able to pop balloons, relying only on onboard sensing
and computing. The system is evaluated with real robot experiments during the Mohamed Bin Zayed International Robotics Challenge (MBZIRC) 2020 where it showed its resilience and speed. In all three competition runs we were able to pop all five balloons in less than two minutes flight time with a single MAV.
Autonomously searching for hazardous radiation sources requires the ability of the aerial and ground systems to understand the scene they are scouting. In this paper, we present systems, algorithms, and experiments to perform radiation search using u
nmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and unmanned ground vehicles (UGV) by employing semantic scene segmentation. The aerial data is used to identify radiological points of interest, generate an orthophoto along with a digital elevation model (DEM) of the scene, and perform semantic segmentation to assign a category (e.g. road, grass) to each pixel in the orthophoto. We perform semantic segmentation by training a model on a dataset of images we collected and annotated, using the model to perform inference on images of the test area unseen to the model, and then refining the results with the DEM to better reason about category predictions at each pixel. We then use all of these outputs to plan a path for a UGV carrying a LiDAR to map the environment and avoid obstacles not present during the flight, and a radiation detector to collect more precise radiation measurements from the ground. Results of the analysis for each scenario tested favorably. We also note that our approach is general and has the potential to work for a variety of different sensing tasks.
The Mohamed Bin Zayed International Robotics Challenge (MBZIRC) 2017 has defined ambitious new benchmarks to advance the state-of-the-art in autonomous operation of ground-based and flying robots. This article covers our approaches to solve the two c
hallenges that involved micro aerial vehicles (MAV). Challenge 1 required reliable target perception, fast trajectory planning, and stable control of an MAV in order to land on a moving vehicle. Challenge 3 demanded a team of MAVs to perform a search and transportation task, coined Treasure Hunt, which required mission planning and multi-robot coordination as well as adaptive control to account for the additional object weight. We describe our base MAV setup and the challenge-specific extensions, cover the camera-based perception, explain control and trajectory-planning in detail, and elaborate on mission planning and team coordination. We evaluated our systems in simulation as well as with real-robot experiments during the competition in Abu Dhabi. With our system, we-as part of the larger team NimbRo-won the MBZIRC Grand Challenge and achieved a third place in both subchallenges involving flying robots.
