Agents for cooperative heterogeneous mobile robotics: a case study

In the last years, there is a greater interest in systems of multiple autonomous robots for the accomplishment of cooperative tasks. This fact has motivated the implementation of a distributed architecture for a team of heterogeneous mobile robots. Such architecture must have the capacity to allow to the team of robots the accomplishment of cooperative tasks; the proposed solution consist of a multiagent system for the implementation of this distributed architecture. Also, two practical applications of cooperative tasks with the created architecture are sketched: cooperative navigation and localization and cooperative
