摘要
Multi-robot path planning is one of the most attractive issues in the field of multiple robots.Compared with the algorithm for the single-robot path planning, the problem of multi-robot path planning, which takes obstacle avoidance and cooperation into account simultaneously, is more difficult and complex.Hence, a novel improved rapidly-exploring random tree algorithm for multi-robot formation path planning in this paper is proposed to address these obstacle avoidance and cooperation problems.The constraint condition of positional relationship is defined by modeling the multi-robot formation shape.Besides, the heading of formation is adjusted with the direction the exploring tree expands.Additionally, simulations are conducted for two different models of robots: the particle model and the non-holonomic constraint dynamic model.Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. © 2020, Chinese Institute of Electronics.
