This paper introduces a distributed multi-robot exploration system that combines bio-inspired flocking dynamics with machine learning-powered connectivity prediction to enable efficient unknown environment mapping while maintaining robust communication networks.

Distributed Multi-Robot Exploration Approach With Connectivity Maintenance

Distributed Systems Exploration Connectivity

Hazem Chaabi, Nathalie Mitton

Inria, France

In this paper, we propose a novel distributed multi-robot exploration algorithm capable of efficiently exploring unknown environments while ensuring uninterrupted communication with each other and with a base station, including multi-hop scenarios when direct communication is not feasible.
