Over the years, the Artificial Intelligence and Integrated Computer Systems (AIICS) Division at Linköping University has developed a high-level architecture for collaborative robotic systems that includes a delegation system capable of defining complex missions to be executed by a team of agents. This architecture has been used as a part of a research arena for developing and improving public safety and security using ground, aerial, surfaceand underwater robotic systems. Recently, the division decided to purchase a Boston Dynamics Spot robot to further progress into the public safety and security research area.The robot has a robotic arm and navigation functionalities such as map building, motion planning, and obstacle avoidance. This thesis investigates how the Boston Dynamics Spot robot can be integrated into the high-level architecture for collaborative robotic systems from the AIICS division. Additionally, how the robot’s functionalities can be extended so that it is capable of determining which actions it should take to achieve high-level behavioursconsidering its capabilities and current state. In this context, higher-level behaviours include picking up and delivering first aid supplies, which can be beneficial in specific emergency situations. The study was divided and done in an iterative approach.The system was tested in various scenarios that represent its intended future use. The result demonstrated the robot’s ability to plan and accomplish the desired high-level behaviours. However, there were instances when achieving the desired behaviours proved challenging due to various limiting factors, including limitations posed by the robot’s internal controller.
