Multi robotic systems essentially involves coming up with coordination strategies for multiple robots to solve the problems of mobile robotics in a more efficient manner as well as to tackle problems that would prove to be very difficult for single robotic systems to approach such as search and rescue, vast area terrain acquisition and surveillance. We have contributed quite profoundly in the area of multi robotic exploration where our design of new metrics had resulted in reduced exploration and coverage times in both planar and 3D worlds. We have also provided novel solutions for exploration in presence of communication constraints and exploration with vision as the primary or sole sensing modality.
