Communication between Khepera Mini Robots for Cooperative Positioning
نویسندگان
چکیده
For implementing efficient cooperative behaviour strategies of a group of robots an appropriate communication system is needed. Depending on the robot’s task different communication techniques may be used. We have analyzed an ultrasonic detection and communication system, a communication technique that uses infrared transmitters and receivers and a radio based system using Bluetooth technology. In addition a passive vision system for cooperative robot recognition and positioning has been analyzed. For each system we have developed particular sensor and communication components, that can be used for experiments. As a platform for embedding and testing our hardware we use the mini robot Khepera.

GUARDIANS multi-robot team as a self-organising system
The GUARDIANS robot swarm is selforganising and can be seen as a hybrid of a (heterogeneous) swarm, a mobile ad-hoc network and an (evolving) topological map of the environment. We assume that robots cooperate in order to deploy themselves, search the area and construct a (online) map of the environment. We present a novel approach of distributing robots on site that takes advantage of a cooper...
متن کاملTrajectory Tracking of Two-Wheeled Mobile Robots, Using LQR Optimal Control Method, Based On Computational Model of KHEPERA IV
This paper presents a model-based control design for trajectory tracking of two-wheeled mobile robots based on Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) optimal control. The model proposed in this article has been implemented on a computational model which is obtained from kinematic and dynamic relations of KHEPERA IV. The purpose of control is to track a predefined reference trajectory with the best po...

A Visualization Tool for the Mini-Robot Khepera: Behavior Analysis and Optimization
The design of behavior generating control structures for real robots acting autonomously in a real and changing environment is a complex task. This is in particular true with respect to the debugging process, the documentation of the encountered behavior, its quantitative analysis and the final evaluation. To successfully implement such a behavior, it is vital to couple the synthesis on a simul...
