Triangulating Unknown Environments using Robot Swarms

How can a robot swarm explore an unknown area and understand its layout? In this video, a swarm of R-one mobile robots is used for such a task. They are not trying to build an accurate floor plan, which requires expensive sensors. Instead, they sketch the area using a mathematical structure - a triangulation, which captures the essential topological features of the environment. This structure can be used to help other robots navigate through the area, and it can be created by low-cost robots with limited capabilities.
