Compared to the single-robot system, the multi-robot system has more advantages and a broaden application aspect, and is becoming one of the hottest topics in Robotics. Furthermore, the simulation experiment is playing an important role in multi-robot system researches. This paper makes a good analysis and conclusion of the multi-robot system simulation software status quo, with an emphasis on the several present mainstream ones and the evaluation criteria. Then, based on the characteristics and requirements of the multi-robot system simulation experiments, the 3D simulation platform is developed in the Microsoft Robotics Developer Studio, aiming to the two typical tasks - Collaborating Transportation and Formation Patrol.
