PySwarming: a research toolkit for Swarm Robotics
Emerson Martins de Andrade, Antonio Carlos Fernandes, Joel Sena Sales Junior
When considering a system composed of a group of robots, swarm robotics is an approach that can be used to coordinate this group. These swarms can be inspired or not by social insects or other animal societies (Trianni, 2008), where basic behaviors are usually used to compose complex tasks. These previously mentioned basic behaviors have been studied for a long time, with applications, for example, to flocks, herds, and schools (Reynolds, 1987) and multi-robot teams (T. Balch & Arkin, 1998). Here we introduce PySwarming, a tool that makes easy the coordination of swarms and serves as a centerpiece, organizing different methods developed in the swarm robotics field. Its flexibility (written in Python) and customizability (easily customized by users) encourage interaction and scientific progress in the research community.
