ABSTRACT

In this chapter a system of autonomous rovers will be presented in the context of system of systems. In addition, a system of homogenous modular microrobots will be presented in the context of system of systems. The chapter starts with the introduction of the components and their roles in the system of autonomous rovers. Then, each system will be presented focusing on electrical, mechanical, and control characteristics and their capabilities in the system of autonomous rovers. Robust data aggregation and mine detection are then examined as applications of the system of autonomous rovers.
