Implementation of Swarm Robotics for Air Pollution Monitoring

Abstract

This paper describes a model project for determining the environmental conditions that exist in an area using an army or a swarm of robots. These robots relocate themselves independently of each other, in their own prescribed path. This project is inspired by the extent of task that are collectively accomplished by a swarm of ants or bees, the swarm of robots find their utility in areas where environmental conditions are to be monitored. Monitoring of environmental conditions using satellite technology, stationary gas sensors have their own drawbacks. Satellite technology for monitoring fails when an area is to be monitored where signals fail to reach. Similarly, stationary gas sensors cannot be installed at every location.
