The Department of Computer Science discussed the PhD thesis titled "Swarm Robots For Monitoring Area Coverage Within Dynamic Obstacles Environment" by PhD student Dina Kazem Mohsen (Computer Science / General) on Thursday, 2024/9/12 in the late Dr. Imad Kazem's hall in the Computer Science Department building.
The thesis aims to solve the problem of area coverage by presenting an intelligent system for area coverage using a swarm of mobile robots to perform rescue tasks in emergency situations. This is based on several methods using five real robots of the TurtleBot3 type.
The proposed system achieved a challenge in the field of robotics by allowing the robots to navigate in a dynamic environment and integrating several exploration and path-planning algorithms. The proposed system is characterized by scalability, flexibility, and generality. Its generality allows it to be applied in healthcare, firefighting, earthquake response, search and rescue, and other emergency scenarios.
The discussion committee consisted of Prof. Dr. Abbas Fadhel Mohammed Ali as the chairman, with members Prof. Dr. Safana Mothher Raafat, Prof. Dr. Iyad Rudhan Abbas, Assist. Prof. Dr. Rehab Faleh Hassan, and Dr. Ahmed Tareq Sadeq as a member and supervisor, along with Assist. Prof. Dr. Firas Abdulrazzaq Raheem as a member and supervisor.
