Distributed robotic target acquisition using Bluetooth communication
This paper presents a distributed multi-robot system designed to solve a team-based search and destroy task. The project was divided into two phases. The initial phase was used to demonstrate the application of Bluetooth communication for coordinated robotic search. The second (current) phase of the project attempts to integrate these early developments. This integration allows two seeker robots to locate and coordinate an attack on a target (enemy). The goal of the first phase was to develop a robot communication strategy using Bluetooth for the Honeybee task. The goal of the second phase was to take the communication strategy and use it in the team-based search and destroy task. A secondary goal in the current phase was to convert a model tank into a robust autonomous vehicle. We present the details of the phases, the progress made towards achieving the goals, and the directions we plan to take after the current phase is complete.
