Evaluation Method for Multi-Operator and Multi-Robot Teleoperation Systems

This paper focuses on the topic of evaluation method for Multi-Operator and Multi-Robot (MOMR) teleoperation systems. First, a new evaluation method for MOMR teleoperation systems was proposed, and the corresponding grouping method of terminals and robots in system and its group evaluation method we proposed was discussed. Second, ten kind of universal capabilities covering 128 functional items and 64 quantitative items were summarized for four operation mode evaluation in the process of group evaluation. Then group evaluation capabilities and items covering 11 functional items and 10 quantitative items were summed up for the comprehensive evaluation of Single-Operator Multi-Robot (SOMR) operation mode group (SOMROMG), Multi-Operator Single-Robot (MOSR) operation mode group (MOSROMG), and Multi-Operator Multi-Robot (MOMR) operation mode group (MOMROMG). Then evaluation capabilities and items covering 19 functional items and 10 quantitative items were also listed for the evaluation of intermediate service node of MOMR operation mode. Finally, through example the effectiveness of the proposed method was validated.
