Abstract

A Super-Mechano Colony (SMC) is a multi-robot system comprising a mother ship and numerous child robots. The key concept of an SMC is to introduce centralized features to distributed autonomous robotic systems. In this presentation, a new control method is discribed and examined for an SMC to autonomously perform effective object retrieval missions utilizing these centralized features.
