Io, Ganymede and Callisto - a Multiagent Robot Trash-Collecting Team

1995 , Balch, Tucker , Boone, Gary Noel , Collins, Tom , Forbes, Harold , MacKenzie, Douglas Christopher , Santamaria, Juan Carlos

Georgia Tech won the Office Cleanup Event at the 1994 AAAI Mobile Robot Competition with a multi-robot cooperating team. This paper describes the design and implementation of these reactive trash-collecting robots, including details of multiagent cooperation, color vision for the detection of perceptual object classes, temporal sequencing of behaviors for task completion, and a language for specifying motor schema-based robot behaviors.
