Abstract

In this paper, in order to complete multitask underwater, we will propose a kind of novel underwater Multi-microrobot System which is consist of a mother submarine and several microrobots with ICPF (Ionic Conducting Polymer Film) actuators. Then we simply design the structure and close-loop control system of the microrobot system, study the mission planning and coordinate motion with the formation methods and motion planning algorithms of several microrobots. At last, we use MATLAB to make the formation motional simulation of the microrobot system when following a desired trajectory or path. And we use OPENGL to realize the circle motion of the microrobot system. The simulation results can help us to control the team of microrobots to keep the Triangle Formation.
