Huimin Huang, Kerry Pavek, James Sacra Albus, Elena R. Messina · Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE · 2005
The initial construct of the framework for the Autonomy Levels of Unmanned Systems (ALFUS) was presented in the 2004 SPIE Defense and Security Symposium. This paper describes the continuing development effort and further accomplishments made by the Ad Hoc working group. We focus on two elements of the ALFUS product set, namely, the detailed model that is being implemented as a spreadsheet-based tool and the summary model. We also discuss identified challenges.
