Abstract :
In this paper we propose an algorithm for distributed computation of Voronoi cell in a multi-robotic system. Each of the robots is assumed to know its own position and position of all other robots. The robots compute their Voronoi cells based only on this positional information, without any additional communication and cooperation with other robots.
