Links Bob Grabowski Luis Navarro-Serment Curt Bererton Millibots are designed to be modular. Below is an example of some of the modules used to construct a millibot The Beacon Transceiver is a key element to the Millibots for establishing and maintaining position.
Every robot has some form of transceiver that allows it to get a range to other robots in the group.
Here is the reflector that allows the center detector to receive signals from all the way around the robot. Short range sonar . This module provide sonar range information in a ring about the robot up to a range of about 50 cm. The data from this array is used to identify obstacles and build maps Long range sonar . This module provide sonar range information in a ring about the robot up to a range of about 1.2m.
