How sensing imperfections impact area coverage algorithms?

Our paper titled Voronoi-Based Area Coverage Algorithms: Turning Real-World Fragility into Strength, by Juan Bosco Román Camacho, Enric Morellà Violeta, Omur Arslan, Hector Garcia de Marina, has been accepted at the IEEE International Symposium on Multi-Robot and Multi-Agent Systems (MRS 2025)!! to be held in Singapore in December.

In this work, we study rigorously how sensing imperfections impact area coverage algorithms. A lot of interesting emergent behavior emerges when robots miss the actual direction where their neighbors are.
