* Design and Control of Robotic Highway Safety * MarkersSafety barrels guide traffic and serve as a visible barrier between traffic and work crews. These barrels consist of a brightly colored plastic drum (approximately 130cm high and 50cm in diameter) that is attached to a heavy base. The robotic safety barrel replaces the heavy base with a mobile robot that transports the safety barrel. The robots work in teams to provide traffic control. Independent‚ autonomous barrel motion has several
