Abstract:
Cooperative multirobot systems have been a particularly popular topic within robotics because of their potential applications. To meet the demand of promoting relevant study, the current research and development situation of cooperative multirobot systems were systematically reviewed and summarized. Research concerning the unconscious bionic swarmcooperation multirobot and the heterogeneous intentionalcooperation multirobot was discussed. In particular, to build and optimize heterogeneous intentionalcooperation multirobot systems, the recent advances in system structure, environment perception, and control optimization were surveyed and analyzed. Moreover, the benchmark tasks and universal software/hardware platforms for a multirobot were summarized. Finally, future developments in cooperative multirobot system research were discussed.
