Abstract

This paper presents a new methodical approach to the problem of collision avoidance of mobile robots taking advantages of multi-agents systems to deliver solutions that benefit the whole system. The approach proposed is based-on the information interchange among the involved agents. The implemented method has the next phases: collision detection, obstacle identification, negotiation, agreement, and collision avoidance. In addition of simulations with virtual robots, in order to validate the proposed algorithm, an implementation with real mobile robots has been developed. The robots are based on Lego NXT, and they are equipped with a ring of proximity sensors for the collisions detections. The platform for the implementation and management of the multi-agent system is JADE.
