Abstract :
In this paper we introduce a novel spatial exploration and coverage algorithm based on reflex agents using a pheromone map as storage and communication medium. The algorithm proposed in this paper outperforms many of the popular reflex agent exploration algorithms in terms of exploration performance measured as the cumulative path length.
