Towards Application of Collective Robotics in Industrial Environment
نویسنده
چکیده
Modern robotics (Siciliano & Khatib, 2008) trends not only to be reliable, cheap, autonomous, but also cognitive, adaptive, safe and friendly for users (Dodd, 2007). New generation of robot systems is capable of self-configuration (Shen at al., 2006), self-diagnostics and self-healing (Mokhtar et. al., 2008), possesses enough sensing features and computational intelligence on board not only to sense environment, but also to adapt to changes (Kernbach et al., 2008). Application of such robot systems in industrial environments makes possible new types of manufacturing (Westkaemper, 2008): smart, reconfigurable on demand, scalable from microto macrodimensions, transparent for workflowand managementprocesses. abStract

Collective Intelligence in Multi-Agent Robotics: Stigmergy, Self-Organization and Evolution
Nature has been able to evolve (several times) natural systems which produce complex spatio-temporal patterns from agents with very simple behaviours by exploiting the interactions between the agents and their environment. Surprisingly, the systematic use of these principles have been mostly neglected within the field of collective robotics. We study the use of these biological principles in na...
متن کاملA Collective Robotics Application Based on Emergence and Self-organization
This paper presents a collective robotics application, which consists of making a pool of robots regroup objects that are distributed in their environment. The innovative aspect in our approach rests on a system integrating operationally autonomous robots that make the global task achieved by virtue of emergence and self-organization.
متن کاملNano Technology
We present a new approach using genetic algorithms, neural networks, and nano robotics concepts applied to the problem of control design for nanoassembly automation and its application in medicine. As a practical approach to validate the proposed design, we have elaborated and simulated a virtual Environment focused on control automation for nano robotics teams that exhibit collective behavior....
متن کاملScripting the swarm: event-based control of microcontroller-based robots
Swarm robotics in real world requires a large number of robots and thus enough room for experimentation. Therefore, to implement such experiments with limited budget, robots should be compact and low cost, which entails the use of microcontroller-based miniature robots. In this context, developing behaviour is challenging, because microcontrollers are not powerful enough to support common high-...
متن کاملUse of natural coagulants for industrial wastewater treatment
Industrial effluents are a menace to the environment and the fact that their characteristics vary from industry-to-industry only adds to the complex challenge they offer to the engineers and scientists. Resource-efficient and environment-friendly solutions to this hazard are a call of the hour. Coagulation, by synthetic chemicals, has been used as a cost-effective and efficient method for manag...
