Abstract :
Recently mobile robots act in various situations such as disaster areas, office buildings, factories and homes. When these new mobile robots are released, they should be confirmed to work correctly and safety from evaluation. In this paper, we propose large-scale simulation environment of mobile robots on StarBED which is a large-scale networked testbed. By using the simulation environment, we could confirm that four hundreds of mobile robots act in real-time.
