Battle Simulator for Multi-Robot Mission Simulation and Reinforcement Learning

Abstract

As AI technology advances, interest in performing multi-robot autonomous missions for manned-unmanned teaming (MUM-T) is increasing. In order to develop autonomous mission performance technology for multiple robots, simulation technology that reflects the characteristics of real robots and can flexibly apply various missions is needed. Additionally, in order to solve complex non-linear tasks, an API must be provided to apply multi-robot reinforcement learning technology, which is currently under active research. In this study, we propose the campaign model to flexibly simulate the missions of multiple robots. We then discuss the results of developing a simulation environment that can be edited and run and provides a reinforcement learning API including acceleration performance. The proposed simulated control module and simulated environment were verified using an enemy infiltration scenario, and parallel processing performance for efficient reinforcement learning was confirmed through experiments.
