A Tuple Space for Data Sharing in Robot Swarms
In this paper, we present a system to allow a swarm of robots to agree on a set of (key,value) pairs. This system enables a form of information sharing that has the potential to be an asset for coordination in complex environments, such as globally optimized task allocation. Taking inspiration from the environment-mediated communication of social insects, we call the system virtual stigmergy. E...
متن کاملCoordinating Massive Robot Swarms
This chapter addresses the problem of how to coordinate the behavior of very large numbers of microrobots in order to assemble complex, hierarchically structured physical objects. The approach is patterned after morphogenetic processes during embryological development, in which masses of simple agents (cells) coordinate to produce complex three-dimensional structures. In order to ensure that th...
متن کاملAerial robot swarms
Vijay Kumar (www.seas.upenn.edu/~kumar) studies collective behaviors in biological and robotic systems. He and his research group design novel architectures, create abstractions for systems of interacting individuals, and develop new algorithms for cooperating robots. The overarching themes in his research include modeling nature and developing bioinspired architectures and algorithms, understa...
متن کاملBio-inspired search strategies for robot swarms
Our goal is as follows: build a suite/swarm of (very) small robots that can search a room for a “target”. We envision that the robots will be about the size of a quarter dollar, or smaller, and have a sensor or sensors that “sniff” out the desired target. For example, the target could be a bomb and the robot sensors would be a chemical detectors that can distinguish the bomb from its surroundin...
متن کاملBioinspired Obstacle Avoidance Algorithms for Robot Swarms
Recent work in socio-biological sciences have introduced simple heuristics that accurately explain the behavior of pedestrians navigating in an environment while avoiding mutual collisions. We have adapted and implemented such heuristics for distributed obstacle avoidance in robot swarms, with the goal of obtaining human-like navigation behaviors which would be perceived as friendly by humans s...
