Abstract

This paper discusses emerging of object shape information by multi-robots. We carried out computer simulation studies and found that the significant shape information was emerged as the cyclic waveform pattern of signal frequency among the robots. Robots have local communication ability. When enough number of the robots distributed on an object, they established signal transmission relay around the object. The characteristics of the shape information were examined with respect to some simulation conditions. Then, we were able to obtain the conditions for enough classifying of different shape objects.
