Abstract

The development of mobile robots has become popular among inventor nowadays. In many applications multi robot systems are desirable for much reason. In the case of planetary explorers, deploying more robots will enable coverage of large area in a shorter time. Like ants and other insects, many cheap robots working together could replace a single expensive robot, making a multi robot system more cost effective. Multi robot systems can accomplish task that no single robot can accomplish, since ultimately a single robot, no matter how capable, is spatially limited. In this project, i-MS will be developed with two unit mobile robots as multi agent robot system that can perform team movement in interacted with the environments. Multi agent mobile robots as master-slave is able to move automatically on flat surfaces which it has ability of obstacle avoidance where it will try to avoid collision for object that come in its way. The robots will be controlled by PIC16F877A microcontroller. As for the software part, there are two main of software development tools being used in building the multi agent robot intelligence. There are the MPLAB Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and PICC LITE. Two units of RC Servo Motor (C36R) are used as actuator for each robot. KC Wirefree Bluetooth Module KC21 is used as communication method among the robots which will allow master-slave behaviors. One of the robots will act as master whiles another one as slave. The slave will follow the movement of master. The robots have interchanging masterslave function based on environment.
