Swarm Robotics Foraging Approaches

Abstract

Foraging problem is most important in robotics because it has a lot of applications and further research areas. In the last decade, swarm robotics systems are widely studying because hardware components became cheaper, and multi-agent cooperative interaction behavior models actively researched. Swarms systems are robust and autonomous, but every single agent has a too simple behavior for doing assigned tasks like foraging to be accomplished. This work reviewed approaches to a swarm of simple robot's behavior design for solving the more complex problem as foraging.
