Symbiotic Approach in a Modular Mobile Robot

Abstract

This paper presentsthe application of a symbiotic approachin a modular mobile robot. This characteristic behavior might help addressthe challengesin modular reconfigurable robotoperation. The general model symbiosisalgorithm will help decide if the modular part is harmful or beneficial to the performance or task of the robotic systemthru the carrying capacity. The symbiotic behavior is presented and implemented in this paper viamodel-baseddesign with the aid of MATLABSimulink using a 6 wheeled mobile robot with 3 modular body to identify the carrying capacity of the system.Carrying capacity istranslated and used as thedistance and velocity capacity of the design model robotic system.Carrying capacity is greatly influence by the number species or in our case modules it is shown in this paper that carrying capacity are not fixed in quantities but should be consider as functions of the population sizesand function. The mathematical formulation of the idea is to investigate its consequence. Aside from the population size role or interaction.
