Abstract

The increasing number of autonomous vehicles, the growing complexity of the tasks involving them, and the amount of data to be considered makes it difficult for a single operator to monitor and control all the vehicles in the mission. Taking advantage of the modular, versatile, reconfigura-ble and multi-vehicle architectural design of the developed Ground Control Station (GCT), we have incorporate in it aid mechanisms (adaptability and transparency) that lighten the displayed information and focus on the most relevant one for each situation within a mission, in order to reduce the operator mental workload. This article shows how these aids have been implemented and the experiments carried out on a set of operators to verify the GCT effectiveness in reducing the operators mental work load.
