Abstract

Swarm robotics is the study of the coordination of multi-robot systems which consist of large numbers of mostly simple physical robots. The swarm robotics inspired form nature which was combined of swarm intelligence and robotics and it has a great potential in several aspects. Although swarm robotics consists of many robots but without formation, it can do nothing. In industry, swarm robotics controlled by using formation and it will be helped to improve the performance of the operation system. This project focuses on the development of mobile robot using Raspberry Pi for swarm robotics. The model for swarm robotics is draw by using Solidwork Software. Three robots have been developed which remotely controlled. Python language is needed to program the robot by mean of wireless application in order to cooperate to perform a column and triangle pattern formation. A performance comparison between the need of infrared and ultrasonic sensor for distance between robots have been done. From the experiment, the ultrasonic sensor gives more accurate measurement compare to infrared sensor. Besides, PUTTY will be uses to set the algorithm calculation for the Raspberry Pi. The testing and analysis of the robot will be done in different parts of process to maintain the performance of swarm robots.
