Title: robot program
Post by: rajiv on June 23, 2011, 07:53:21 AM

Hi
I am newbie and need help with programming a multirobot system for object transportation
I donot know how to program such a system.
Also if anyone can help me with understanding the dynamics of the system.
I was given a few papers and asked to code that but nothing is clear in the paper
so if anyone can help me that would be wonderful

You'll have to be way more specific than just that. Give us as many info as you can.

Hi
It is a box pushing system where multiple autonomous robots co-ordinate among themselves to push the object from a given source to destination.
Further the obstacle is heavy enough so that none alone can push it

more info please...like
-what programming language you plan on using?
-characteristics of robots.i.e means of communicating, detecting etc
-any particular algorithms you are implementing
etc.
that said, programming autonomous robots is tricky, let alone control a swarm of them. Take some time and start off with very basic steps..like first learn how would you move one robot from one place to another. Then make two of them move together , and when you get a hang of things, try using more together.
