Aggregate computing has been studied for over a decade and is supported by multiple programming frameworks, proving suitable for simulating applications in challenging domains such as smart cities and robot swarms. Project Emerge is a toolchain for practical multi-robot demonstrations based on aggregate computing principles, validated through a public, live, interactive demo at a European Researchers’ Night event. Using a camera system and ArUco markers for localization, we show how the demonstrator coordinates mobile robots to form spatial patterns.

Abstract
Aggregate computing has been studied for over a decade and is supported by multiple programming frameworks, proving suitable for simulating applications in challenging domains such as smart cities and robot swarms. Project Emerge is a toolchain for practical multi-robot demonstrations based on aggregate computing principles, validated through a public, live, interactive demo at a European Researchers’ Night event. Using a camera system and ArUco markers for localization, we show how the demonstrator coordinates mobile robots to form spatial patterns.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
