We present our understanding of the task and discuss the proposed solution, focusing on the mechanical and computational issues of the robots. The mechanics is based on rigid body capability of transforming rotational into curvilinear movement. With respect to the computational control, the system is modeled as a reactive system with sequential transition of behaviors. A state-machine is proposed to allow this transition, and the synchronization of robotic states is guaranteed by the communication system. The proposed approach has shown itself capable of dealing with the high difficulty degree of this cooperative task. ©2006 IEEE.234-239engCooperative systemsDesign automationMobile robotsRobot programmingAutomationRoboticsAutonomous mobile robots (ALR)Collector (flotation)Latin American (LA)RobotsTrabalho apresentado em evento10.1109/LARS.2006.334349WOS:000245891200036Acesso aberto2-s2.0-46149119871
