Coordination and control of a group of ground robots

The aim of this project was to assemble, interconnect, and program a group of ground robots. The objective of the robot control is to cooperatively complete a set of tasks where each task represents a goal location that needs to be visited. For the hardware implementation so-called JetBots, which are based on the Nvidia Jetson Nano platform, were used in connection with a visual motion tracking system by OptiTrack. In this presentation, the core concepts of the implementation will be presented and the results will be demonstrated with a multi-robot experiment. This report presents the core concepts behind the implementation of such a framework and finally presents how each one of these components had been put together to form the entire system.
