In this work, by integrating omni-wheel mobile robots with X-Bee communication protocol, Arduino control, IR range finders, and CMOS camera, as well as wiimote multizone localization, tasks such as obstacle and collision avoidances, following, autonomously movement, and indoor localization of group robots are implemented as the first step toward an autonomously control of group robots for smart living and biomimetic applications. In conjunction with hardware design, novel algorithms are also developed to realize these tasks for future group robot applications in indoor service and biomimetic tasks.
