Abstract
This paper presents Habanero, an automatic method for designing stigmergy-based collective behaviors in robot swarms. Habanero uses an optimization process based on simulations to generate behaviors for robots that lay and sense artificial pheromones. Experimental results demonstrate that automatically designed behaviors are comparable to, and sometimes superior to, manually designed ones, showcasing the potential of automation in swarm robotics.
