A simulation platform for the cooperation of distributed robot team

A simulation platform for distributed autonomous robots in box-pushing or other missions is described in this article. The simulation system is utilized to perform experiments with various control strategies for the robot team and team organizations, evaluating the comparative performance of the strategies and organizations. The simulated robots are capable of navigation through the environment, and can communicate using simple messages. The simulator maintains the world, provides each robot with sensory information, and carries out the actions of the robots. In the simulation, you can see four robots pushing six boxes to the appointed place in a three-dimensional scene.
