117 -**10. Procedure (Step-by-Step)**
118 -
119 -1. Team preparation:
120 -11. FR team ROBOT is trained in operating the robot, analysing the camera stream, and pinning information on C3I
121 -11. Squad leader and BoO are trained for both teams in interpreting the health and location sensor data.
122 -11. Experiment leader knows where hazards and victims are in both buildings.
123 -11. Anymal robot is tested with network in target buildings for experiment (without FR themselves seeing building!)
124 -1. Experiment preparation
125 -11. Building is prepped with victims, hazards, etc.
126 -1. Briefing:
127 -11. Same for both teams for both building types: Building has been inspected from outside and is estimated safe for entry. Situation inside unknown. Victims possibly present. Goal: find, assess, and extract victims while avoiding and mapping hazards.
128 -11. One person is notified that their health sensor will be triggered during the Building B (difficult building) situation.
129 -1. Execution:
130 -11. For FR team ROBOT, see: [[UC04.3: Detailed indoor exploration with ANYMAL (USAR)>>2\. Specification.b\. Use Cases.UC04\.0\: Detailed indoor exploration.UC04\.3\: Detailed indoor exploration with ANYMAL (USAR).WebHome]]
131 -11. For FR team HUMAN, see: [[UC04.4: Detailed indoor exploration without ANYMAL (USAR)>>2\. Specification.b\. Use Cases.UC04\.0\: Detailed indoor exploration.UC04\.3\: Detailed indoor exploration with ANYmal (USAR).WebHome]]
132 -11. During execution of both teams, performance will be measured by experiment leader:
133 -111. Mission completion time
134 -111. Health indicators stay within acceptable range
135 -111. Time for tackling any health alerts
136 -111. Track FR path
137 -1. Hotwash:
138 -11. Questions on:
139 -111. Near-incident report
140 -111. Path inside
141 -111. FR location and status of hazards, victims, and layout
142 -111. Mission effectiveness
