Cooperative searching strategy for swarm robot

This paper represents a cooperative searching strategy of swarm robot in finding and localizing odor source. 3 robots, namely: Cyborg G11, Cyborg G12, and Cyborg G13 were used as agents that form the swarm in this research. The cooperation among the robots trough communication has shown the success of the swarm in odor searching. When one of the agents in swarm robot detected a high concentration of odor in its place, it will use the data of this concentration as its own information in order to decide what position it should go. Moreover, this data was also shared to the other robot trough wireless communication such that they can compare their own data with the data shared to them. By having the information, each agent can decide what solution they should take. The experimental work in this research shows that using communication among the robot can support the robots in searching and finding the odor source.
