In recent decades many important problems concerning mobile robots control algorithms have been solved. In order to integrate those solutions into complex, reliable, production-quality systems, an effort must be made to define abstract methodologies, architectures and frameworks, that would provide common functionalities and support features desirable ...

A Multi-Robot System for Landmine Detection
2005 IEEE Conference on Emerging Technologies and Factory Automation, 2006This paper describes the development of a multi-robot system for area reduction in humanitarian demining. In spite of the specific requirements imposed to the work being carried out by the humanitarian demining domain, the results being achieved can also be used in other domains such as surveillance and remote monitoring.

Energy optimization of multi-robot systems
2015 IEEE International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE), 2015This paper presents an optimization algorithm that has been able to save up to 45% of the energy consumption of an industrial multi-robot system. The tool Sequence Planner now includes these algorithms, focusing on minimizing energy consumption. The goal has been to reduce the energy consumption of individual robots and robots interacting in a work ...

A sizing method for a multi-robot system
Proceedings 2001 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems. Expanding the Societal Role of Robotics in the the Next Millennium (Cat. No.01CH37180), 2002Addresses a fast method for optimizing and sizing a multi-robot system. To demonstrate the performance of such an approach, a complex heterogeneous system is considered. It is composed of two populations of robots having different but complementary abilities. It is shown that it is possible to find the optimum criteria to execute the mission and obtain

Learning Concepts with Multi-robot Systems
2011This paper introduces a novel approach to learn representations of objects using a team of robots. Each robot extracts local and global visual features of objects and combines them to represent and recognize objects. Contrary to previous approaches the robots do not know in advance the number or nature of objects to learn. Individual representations of

Cooperative processing with multi-robot systems
2017 IEEE International Conference on Advanced Intelligent Mechatronics (AIM), 2017Multi-robot systems are increasingly utilized for cooperative industrial robot applications. In the scope of this work, a novel approach for the division of robot applications between multiple robots by handling the tool and the workpiece at the same time is presented.

Emergence Analysis in a Multi-Robot System
2018 XLIV Latin American Computer Conference (CLEI), 2018In this paper, we study the emergent behaviors in a multi-robot system. The multi-robot system uses a model for decision making that is composed of three levels: one individual, one collective, and another for the knowledge and learning management. In particular, the individual level, the base of the emergent behavior of the system, is composed of a ...

While the concepts of robotics and planning may be easily understood by the taking a single robot, it is not necessary that the problems we solve have a single robot in the planning scenario. In this chapter, the authors present systems with multiple robots, each robot attempts to coordinate and cooperate with the other robots for problem solving.

Distributed coverage with multi-robot system
Proceedings 2006 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2006. ICRA 2006., 2006In this paper, we proposed an improved algorithm for the multi-robot complete coverage problem. Real world applications such as lawn mowing, chemical spill clean-up, and humanitarian de-mining can be automated by the employment of a team of autonomous mobile robots.

Precise Formation of Multi-Robot Systems
2007 IEEE International Conference on System of Systems Engineering, 2007There are several applications which require high-precision placement of sensors or objects. Unstructured, remote environments make this problem even more complex, where high precision is not attainable using conventional sensors. Some applications have units so sparsely spaced that few options remain.
