Abstract

This demonstration shows a team of small humanoid robots traverse an environment through a set of obstacles. The robots' brain are implemented using mobile phones for vision, balance, and processing. The robots use particle filters to localize themselves and to map the environment. A frontier-based exploration algorithm is used to direct the robots to overcome obstacles and to explore all regions of the environment.
