Area Coverage with Multiple Capacity-Constrained Robots [PDF]
IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, 2022 The area coverage problem is the task of efficiently servicing a given two-dimensional surface using sensors mounted on robots. We present a novel formulation for generating coverage routes for multiple capacity-constrained robots, where capacity can be ...
