Map-Merging-Free Connectivity Positioning for Distributed Robot Teams
We consider a set of static towers with communication capabilities, but not within range of each other due to distance and obstacles. The goal is to achieve connectivity among the towers through a set of robots positioned in a way to act as gateways among the towers. The autonomous mobile robots are initially randomly deployed without necessarily being within range of each other, nor of the st...
متن کاملMap-merging in Multi-robot Simultaneous Localization and Mapping Process Using Two Heterogeneous Ground Robots
In this article, a fast and reliable map-merging algorithm is proposed to produce a global two dimensional map of an indoor environment in a multi-robot simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) process. In SLAM process, to find its way in this environment, a robot should be able to determine its position relative to a map formed from its observations. To solve this complex problem, simultan...
متن کاملDistributed Map-Merging-Free Multi-Robot Positioning for Creating a Connected Network
We consider a set of static towers with communication capabilities, but not within range of each other, i.e., sparsely positioned in an environment with obstacles that degrade the communication signal, e.g., emergency teams in areas where connectivity has been lost. We address the problem of deploying mobile robots, initially not necessarily within range of each other or of the static towers, t...
متن کاملMap-Based Strategies for Robot Navigation in Unknown Environments
Robot path planning algorithms for finding a goal in a unknown environment focus on completeness rather than optimality. In this paper, we investigate several strategies for using map information, however incomplete or approximate, to reduce the cost of the robot’s traverse. The strategies are based on optimistic, pessimistic, and average value assumptions about the unknown portions of the robo...
متن کاملMobile robot wall-following control using a behavior-based fuzzy controller in unknown environments
This paper addresses a behavior-based fuzzy controller (BFC) for mobile robot wall-following control.The wall-following task is usually used to explore an unknown environment.The proposed BFC consists of three sub-fuzzy controllers, including Straight-based Fuzzy Controller (SFC),Left-based Fuzzy Controller (LFC), and Right-based Fuzzy Controller (RFC).The proposed wall-...
