Abstract

Detecting and capturing intruders are two of the most important function of multi-robot systems. In this paper, we propose an effective approach to capture agile intruders with not-so-agile mobile robots. In general, it is difficult to drive several robots to pursue moving objects while adjusting their behaviors. We make mobile robots cooperate using two mobile software agents that control the mobile robots. The mobile software agents migrate from one robot to another robot that is located at much suitable positions for guiding moving robots to the target location. This control manner contributes to not only reduction of movement cost of the mobile robots, but also their efficient movement without interference from other robots. We have implemented a simulator, on which we demonstrated effectiveness of our control manner for intruders-capturing system.
