Multi-robot systems have drawn the attention of many different research communities, such as physics, electronics, control, computer science, mathematics, and biology. Motivated by the growing popularity of multi-robot system and related coordination approaches, this paper surveys and analyzes the relevant literature, including six classification dimensions: system architectures, communication and...
In order to monitor the leakage of hazardous chemicals and guarantee the safety of people in hazardous areas, we developed RESRS (Robot Emergency Search and Rescue System). RESRS integrated technologies such as mobile robot and WSN (Wireless Sensor Network). The mobile robots in the system act as mobile nodes of WSN. We describe the components of the generic RESRS's architecture in detail. A small-scale...
Distributed and efficiently allocating tasks to networked robots in dynamic environment pose challenge in both theory and application in robotics. A fundamental issue here is how to reallocate tasks during task execution. In this paper, by integrating a high-level market-based algorithm with a low-level mobile ad-hoc network communication structure, we propose a new cooperation architecture named...
Industrial manufacturing systems achieve production stability due to near constant production processes e.g. mass production. Passive methods such as production flow analysis can produce plant layouts which optimise material flow within the processing environment. Due to the operational structure of mass customisation, passive methods alone cannot facilitate customer influenced production dynamics...
Currently, robots are being used as teaching tools and can be found in K-12 and college classrooms. The primary appeal associated with employing robots is that they tend to capture the attention of the target audience and thereby facilitate the learning process. While there are numerous robotic kits on the market today, few can be used to teach both high-level concepts in computer science and engineering...
