| Description: |
International audience ; In critical scenarios, especially with hazardous environments, multi-robot systems (MRS) become an unavoidable solution in order to overcome the human operators limitations. However, the efficient communication of those systems in large-scales environment with constraints remain a major challenge. Distributed methods are a promising approaches, but often require a global consensus in order to validate a task allocation, which is difficult to achieve in an environment where communications are unreliable or limited. In this paper, we present an emergent coordination mechanism where each robot of a MRS takes individual decisions exclusively relying on local knowledge that has been acquired through its perceptions and through proximity communications. This mechanism doesn't require any communication in order for the robots to execute tasks and shows robustness to communication disturbances. |
