Active Situation Reporting: Definition and Analysis

Abstract In a lot of situations a human is incapable to observe their environment properly. This can be due to disabilities, extreme conditions or simply a complex and changing environment. In those cases, help from an artificial system can be beneficial. This system, equipped with appropriate sensors, would be capable of perceiving things that a human cannot and inform them about the current state of the situation. In this short position paper, we introduce the notion of Active Situation Reporting, in which an agent can inform another agent about the evolution of a situation. We define this notion, study the challenges such a system raises and identify the open research questions by reviewing the state of the art.
