چکیده

This paper presents a geometric based approach for multiple mobile robot motion coordination. All the robot paths being computed independently, we address the problem of coordinating the motion of the robots along their own path in such a way they do not collide each other. The proposed algorithm is based on a bounding box representation of the obstacles in the so-called coordination diagram. The algorithm is resolution-complete. Its efficiency is illustrated by examples involving more than 100 robots.

A Collision Checker for Car-Like Robots Coordination

This paper presents a geometric algorithm dealing with collision checking in the framework of multiple mobile robot coordination. We consider that several mobile robots have planned their own collision-free path by taking into account the obstacles, but ignoring the presence of other robots. We rst compute the domain swept by each robot when moving along its path; such a domain is called a trac...

Path coordination for multiple mobile robots: a resolution-complete algorithm

This paper1 presents a geometry-based approach for multiple mobile robot motion coordination. The problem is to coordinate the motions of several robots moving along fixed independent paths to avoid mutual collisions. The proposed algorithm is based on a bounding box representation of the obstacles in the so-called coordination diagram. The algorithm is resolution-complete but it is shown to be...

Effective Mechatronic Models and Methods for Implementation an Autonomous Soccer Robot

  Omni directional mobile robots have been popularly employed in several applications especially in soccer player robots considered in Robocup competitions. However, Omni directional navigation system, Omni-vision system and solenoid kicking mechanism in such mobile robots have not ever been combined. This situation brings the idea of a robot with no head direction into existence, a comprehensi...
