Abstract:
It can be admitted that multi robot systems have better possibilities of success in accomplishing surveillance
and rescue missions. In proposed system, a multi robot system based on swarm intelligence is developed which will help in
surveillance with real time data uploading on cloud using IoT and perform rescue missions. The objective of this paper is to
develop wireless intercommunication between multiple agents so that they perform the given task in synchronized manner
and to develop a control strategy for robots using PID technique and further optimizing it using ant colony optimization
(ACO) algorithm. The presented system consists of two robots with temperature sensing, fire sensing and hazardous gas
sensing features and a hand held device which receives this information and handheld device is incorporated with the
NodeMCU unit that upload the data on BLYN app. These robots also have capability of sending live videos using wireless
camera. The paper also consists of development of hardware along with simulation results of the system.
