Description
Summary:With the fast-paced development of the technology, robots like unmanned aerial vehicle or automated guided vehicle are made more human-like to reduce human labour. In order to achieve higher order of efficiency and productivity, the researched on multi-robot systems drawn significant attraction worldwide in the past decade. It has been observed cooperation between multiple robots able to perform complex task that would otherwise be impossible for one single powerful robot to accomplish. To design localization and navigation system for multiple mobile robots, it can be break down to 4 major steps which are 2D mapping, localization, navigation, and a master to enable communication between the individual robot. In this project, an open source platform, Robot Operating System (ROS) was used for configuration and simulation. The proposed scenario for case study, selection of environment and the 4 steps mentioned above will be covering in this report.
