Cooperative Search by Combining Simulated and Real Robots in a Swarm under the View of Multibody System Dynamics

This paper presents a new approach for cooperative search of a robot swarm. After modeling the robot, the mechanical Particle Swarm Optimization method is conducted based on physical robot properties. Benefiting from the effective localization and navigation by sensor data fusion, a mixed robot swar...
