Multi-Robot System for Mapping of the Unknown Environment

摘要

The aim of this article is proposal and implementation of the multi-robot system for mapping of the unknown environment. For the localization of each robot, simple odometry was used. Navigation of the robots is based on algorithm similar to bug algorithms. Communication between robots is based on polling. The system was implemented on the platform iRobot Create. Practical experiments have proven that multi-robot system for mapping of the unknown environment is faster and more reliable than single robot system.
