Evolving multirobot excavation controllers and choice of platforms using an artificial neural tissue paradigm

Autonomous robotic excavation has often been limited to a single robotic platform using a specified excavation vehicle. This paper presents a novel method for developing scalable controllers for use in multirobot scenarios and that do not require human defined operations scripts nor extensive modeli...
