Despite recent advances in robotic technology, sewer pipe inspection is still limited to conventional approaches that use cable-tethered robots. Such commercially available tethered robots lack autonomy, and their operation must be manually controlled via their tethered cables ...
Swarm foraging is a common test case application for multi-robot systems. In this paper RepAtt algorithm is used for improving coordination of a robot swarm by selectively broadcasting repulsion and attraction signals. This is a chemotaxis-inspired search behaviour where robot ...

Achieving Swarm Coordination through Chemotaxis
Swarm foraging is a common test case application for multi-robot systems. In this paper we present a novel algorithm for improving coordination of a robot swarm by selectively broadcasting repulsion and attraction signals. Robots use a chemotaxis-inspired search behaviour base ...
This paper presents a novel swarm robotics application of chemotaxis behaviour observed in microorganisms. This approach was used to cause exploration robots to return to a work area around the swarm’s nest within a boundless environment. We investigate the performance of our ...
