A human-swarm teaming can make use of fault-tolerance of the swarm as well as the human critical decision making.

Our previous agile project, Human-swarm Partnerships in Extreme Environments, listed the requirements for trustworthy human-swarm interaction. Based on that, our main goal is to enable the system to assess the criticality of a given situation and decide what needs to be displayed, how, when and why.

We will:

  1. Co-design the interface with experienced drone operators (how & when);
  2. Use probabilistic model checking to verify, predict and explain the behaviour of the swarm (what & why).
