Testing and evaluation of field robotic systems requires both experimentation in representative conditions and human supervision to effectively assess components, manage risk, and interpret results. Due to the complexity of robotic sys-tems, we argue this experimentation should be done adaptively by using insights gained from previous trials. Furthermore, we envision an advisory system that could ...
