Embodiment Construction

[0030] Embodiments of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0031] Such as figure 1 Shown, a kind of system structure diagram based on the swarm control system of robotic honeybee that the example of the present invention provides, comprises following module:

[0032] A cooperative controller (101), a sensor module (102), a positioning system (103), an actuator (104), a communication module (105), a controller (106), a communication module (107), and a synchronization module (108).

[0033]The hardware of the collaborative controller (101) is divided into a CPU module, a power supply module, a digital I / O input module, a digital I / O output module and an analog I / O module, and each module is connected through a backplane connection module. The power supply module provides various levels of working voltage for each module; the CPU module is the core of the entire cooperative controller system, and constitutes a vi...

Abstract

The invention relates to a RoboBee cluster control method and system. A RoboBee can sense the external environment via a sensor module, locate the position of itself to provide convenience for group cooperation via a positioning system, execute a present task via an execution mechanism, communicate with other RoboBees via a communication modules, and form a distributed computer network after communication and networking via a coordinated controller. A user communicates with a RoboBee cluster, including instruction issuing and task distribution, via a communication module in a cluster control system, and time standards of the RoboBee cluster are made uniform via a synchronizing module. The method and system have the advantages that the whole RoboBee cluster can form a self-organizing network to implement distributed cooperative computing even the single RoboBee is not high in intelligence and is low in cost and simple in control, a high-difficulty task that cannot be completed by the single RoboBee can be completed by the cluster, manual intervention is not needed in the task execution process, and the system and method have a dynamic self-healing capability and is high in reliability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of application of intelligent robots and the field of swarm control, and specifically relates to a method and system for swarm control of robot bees. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of computer and mechanical automation technology, people are constantly developing new intelligent robots to help us do complex, delicate, dangerous, and large-scale work to reduce our pressure and protect personal safety. The emergence of some new robots has brought a lot of convenience to our lives, such as lunar probes, EOD robots, service-type (restaurant service-type, welcome-type) robots, and drones. [0003] However, at present, most of the robots stay at a single individual to complete a task, and the disadvantages are obvious. [0004] First of all, the individual abilities of robots are often limited, and they often encounter tasks that cannot be completed by a single individual. Especially in complex s...
