Abstract
This paper addresses the behavior designing problem of a multiple robot system BeRoSH ( Behavior-based Multiple Robot System with Host for Object Manipulation) incorporating a behavior-based dynamic cooperation strategy for vehicle robots. An advanced design method of cooperative behavior for system BeRoSH is described in detail for indicating an incremental construction style of robot’s behavior. Some experiment and simulation results are shown to support the main concepts proposed in this paper.
