Abstract :
This paper describes a multilayer, hybrid, distributed field robot architecture (DFRA) and its integration with MATLAB that is capable of supporting simple and complex functionality of heterogeneous teams of robot systems. This architecture was used to demonstrate multisensor mobile robot fuzzy-logic-based navigation in outdoor environments
