Abstract

Previously a parent-children type multi-robot system “Super-Mechano Colony” has been proposed and confirmed its advantages. In this paper, detailed analysis is performed introducing practical factors of energy recharging and collision avoidance. To dissolve the problem caused by introducing, some methods are proposed and evaluated based on the number of times that the problem happens and the amount of consumed energy.
