51 -1. [Briefing]
52 -1. [Execution]
53 -1. [Debrief / Hotwash]
181 +1. __Team preparation__:
182 +11. FR team ROBOT is trained in operating the robot, analysing the camera stream, and pinning information on C3I
183 +11. Squad leader and BoO are trained for both teams in interpreting the health and location sensor data.
184 +11. Experiment leader knows where hazards and victims are in both buildings.
185 +11. Anymal robot is tested with network in target buildings for experiment (without FR themselves seeing building!)
186 +1. __Experiment preparation:__
187 +11. Building is prepped with victims, hazards, etc.
188 +1. __Briefing:__
189 +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.
190 +11. One person is notified that their health sensor will be triggered during the Building B (difficult building) situation.
191 +1. __Execution:__
192 +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]]

194 +11. During execution of both teams, performance will be measured by experiment leader:
195 +111. Mission completion time
196 +111. Health indicators stay within acceptable range
197 +111. Time for tackling any health alerts
198 +111. Track FR path
199 +1. __Hotwash__:
200 +11. Questions (specified per role, couple questions per topic) on:
201 +111. Near-incident report
202 +111. Path inside
203 +111. FR location and status of hazards, victims, and layout
204 +111. Mission effectiveness: e.g. self reported effectiveness of decisions
205 +111. Self-reported workload
206 +111. Trust survey
207 +11. Group discussion with feedback
