Contributions to the Development of Network Integration of Mobile Robots for Emergency Situations

In this paper, the authors present studies and research about mobile robot’s network integration for emergency situations reasons. First section is an introduction to different mobile robots for emergency situations. Second section presents information about robotic networking integration, where these networks were classified in two categories, swarm robotics and networked robotics networks. In this section, were presented a few advantages and disadvantages of using these technologies as well. Third section is describing authors proposal of developing a networked robotics network using two laboratory mobile robots prototype developed in the Mechatronics and Dynamics Machines Department (MDM) of Technical University of Cluj-Napoca. This integration will be made by using two different communication protocols through ESP32 modules: ESP-Now and http request protocol. In the end, a practical scenario was described as an application of using this networking technology using a Web platform page.
