Human interaction with large numbers of robots ordistributed sensors presents a number of difficult challengesincluding supervisory management, monitoring ofindividual and collective state, and apprehending situationawareness. A rich source of information about theenvironment can be provided even with robots that have noexplicit representations or maps of their locale. To do this,we transform a robot swarm into a distributed interfaceembedded within the environment. Visually, each robotacts like a pixel within a much larger visual display spaceso that any robot need only communicate a small amount ofinformation from its current location. Our approach usesAugmented Reality techniques for communicatinginformation to humans from large numbers of small-scalerobots to enable situation awareness, monitoring, andcontrol for surveillance, reconnaissance, hazard detection,and path finding.
