Area coverage is one of the emerging problems in multi-robot coordination. In this task a team of robots is cooperatively trying to observe or sweep an entire area, possibly conta...
In field environments it is not usually possible to provide robotic systems with valid geometric models of the task and environment. The robot or robot teams will need to create t...
Abstract— This paper studies robotic sensor networks performing coverage optimization tasks with area constraints. The network coverage of the environment is a function of the ro...
