Fuzzy logic-based multi-robot cooperation for object-pushing

Abstract

Multi-robot cooperation is an important issue in robotics. Collaboration can improve the productivity and complete some complex tasks effectively. In this paper, a two-stage fuzzy logic-based control scheme is proposed for a team of robots to cooperatively push an object to a target location. A fuzzy logic-based multi-robot cooperation is proposed to effectively generate collision-free paths for the robots, where the number of robots and the environment are uncertain. The simulation results demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed approach. In comparison to other methods, the proposed fuzzy logic-based control is easier to implement and is more effective at resolving problems with uncertainties.
