The distributed coverage control is developed by combining the interconnected hexagon-lattices based coverage and the hierarchical distributed control of networked multi-robot systems. The distributed coverage control is capable of driving mobile robots to move in the network to cover any environments. We have demonstrated the effectiveness of this distributed coverage control for the network of up-to 14 real mobile robots in both convex and non-convex real-world environments. date: 2016-07 date_type: published full_text_status: none pres_type: paper pagerange: 1067-1072 event_title: 2016 IEEE International Conference on Advanced Intelligent Mechatronics (AIM) event_location: Banff, Alberta, Canada event_dates: 2016 event_type: conference refereed: TRUE citation: Pham, Duy Hung and Tran, Quang Vinh and Ngo, Trung Dung (2016) Distributed coverage control for networked multi-robot systems in any environments.
