Having a robot that carries out a task for you is certainly of some help. Having a group of robots seems to be even better because in this case the task may be finished faster and...
In this paper, we study a simple means for coordinating teams of simple agents. In particular, we study ant robots and how they can cover terrain once or repeatedly by leaving mar...
In this paper, we present the core concept and the benefits of an approach called RoboEarth which will be highly beneficial for future robotic applications in science and industry...
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...
We introduce a new algorithm to cover an unknown space with a homogeneous team of circular mobile robots. Our approach is based on a single robot coverage algorithm, a boustrophed...

Abstract. This paper reports on the development of a domestic userinterface robot that is able to have natural human interaction by speech and emotional feedback. Natural interacti...
We report the results of a year-long experiment in the use of robots to teach computer science. Our data set compares results from over 800 students on identical tests from both r...
An increasing interest in the design of mobile robots has been observed in recent years, which is mainly motivated by technological advances that may allow their application to co...
- Moving a crowd of robots or avatars from their current configurations to some destination area without causing collisions is a challenging motion-planning problem because the hig...
