Abstract
In this study, we proposed duty executions to confine a robot in a specific place with multiple robots. The proposed method involved the use of a role classifier for assigning labor roles, behavior selector for each robot, and a collaboration manager for handling complex situations. Further, we verified the validity of the proposed method by performing simulations to confine a robot in the specific location by using multiple robots.
