Abstract

“It’s all said and done, it’s real, and it’s been fun.” In this book we have studied different topics to develop a set of distributed algorithms that allow a team of robots equipped with monocular cameras achieve a consensus in different perception tasks. We have placed a great effort in three issues related with this problem, the data association of the features observed by the different robots, the identification of the outliers and the convergence speed to reach the consensus. Then we have used these algorithms to study a distributed solution based on consensus to the problem of cooperatively build a topological map of the environment. Conclusions obtained throughout this work are finally summarized in this chapter.
