Robots operating in harsh and hostile environments need reliable multisensorial systems able to automatically acquire as much information as possible. Sensory data from a range of disparate and independent multiple sensors have to produce an improved model or estimate of the domain of interest. Therefore the automated intelligent combination of data from multiple sensors can derive less ambiguous/uncertain information about the desired state. ENEA, the Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and the Environment, is therefore developing a multisensorial layout for robots operating in hostile environments.
