Abstract :
Introduces the new experimental robot HILARE II. In order to build a mobile robot that will be an experimental testbed for several years, and to study and evaluate several approaches for organizing a robot system, basic architectural concepts have been derived and implemented. The robot system is composed of modules, the structure of which is described, as well as the communication tools they need to interact. These tools enable one to implement and evaluate several control schemes and mobile robot architecture approaches
