The aim of this project is to use and to advance agent applications for autonomous, mobile, distributed, and heterogeneous robot systems.
Agent technology seem to be highly suitable for the desired tasks.
It is designed for cooperation, communication and for autonomous decision making, which is essential for the desired robot control application area. This research project contains distributed and agent based control, hybrid robot control architectures, robust sensor interpretation and planning for cooperation systems. Our special attention lies on automatisation of flow of material and autonomous mobile operation.
