Design and implementation for multiple-robot deployment in intelligent space

This paper presents the problem of robot deployment for a number of scattered tasks. We aim to minimize the duration it takes for all robots to reach their assigned task locations. In previous work, we have proposed a team composed of one carrier robot (CR) and several servant robots to accomplish the mission. Then we have suggested an algorithm that determines a path of the CR for an efficient deployment under a few constraints, which is verified by simulations. Assuming that the servant robots are unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), the present paper extends the discussion to a real robot experiment. We design and implement a deployment system in intelligent space. The feasibility of the study is demonstrated through an experiment.
