Abstract
The paper discuses several options to implement multi-robot systems focusing on coordination and action planning of the system. Particular implementation described in details as a case study presents a solution used in multi-robot system for feed pushing in cattle farm. The paper describes implementation of behavior based robot team control and two different path planning methods ensuring that the feed pushing work is done properly. Conclusions outline suggestions for practical implementations regardless of particular application domain.
