Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden, to Washington Headquarters Services, Directorate for Information Operations and Reports, 1215 Jefferson Davis Highway, Suite 1204, Arlington VA 22202-4302. Respondents should be aware that notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person shall be subject to a penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information if it does not display a currently valid OMB control number.

This paper describes the results of a study funded by the National Advanced Mobility Consortium (... more This paper describes the results of a study funded by the National Advanced Mobility Consortium (NAMC) to develop a strategy for establishing interoperability as the norm in military ground robotic and autonomous system (RAS) programs. It briefly provides background explaining the current practices and the reason the study was conducted. It outlines the types of interoperability targeted in ground RAS programs, and describes the findings of a survey of current efforts aimed at creating interoperability through a modular open system architecture approach. It recommends a path forward for creating interoperability in military ground RAS program based on maturing and propagating the ground robotics interoperability profile (IOP) currently being developed and matured at Project Manager, Force Projection (PM FP). Finally it lays out specific steps to be taken and proposes that responsibility for IOP be transitioned to a consortium-style organization as it progresses through an “Iteration...

Further attributed with functional, behavioral, lifecycle, and architectural scopes, and, therefore, can be delineated in terms of control and can be categorized into levels, types, or degrees in application programs. Facilitated by common or standard interfaces. Military robotics face the problem that current systems are generally not interoperable with each other nor optimized to share information into other domains. Payloads, sensors, software & computing devices are anticipated to evolve much faster than base platforms. This brief looks at the RS JPO Interoperability Effort.
