MOBILE MULTIROBOT SYSTEMS
ABSTRACT:
As research progresses in distributed robotic systems,more and more aspects of multi-robot systems are being explored.In this paper, we consider the problem of exploring an unknown environment with a team of robots. As in single-robot exploration the goal is to minimize the overall exploration time. The key problem to be solved in the context of multiple robots is to choose appropriate target points for the individual robots so that they simultaneously explore different regions of the environment. We discuss some more applications regarding multirobots which involves biological,medical and naval applications and also consumer robotic problems
INTRODUCTION:
In recent years, multirobot systems have been the object of wide spread research interest in the scientific community given their application in different fields of robotics such as service, miltary,educational robotics.
The unique characteristics of multirobots are..,
Redundancy
Flexibility
A major goal in robotics is to develop machines that perform useful task with minimal supervision.
