Future Work

In the near term, we plan to implement the constant following distance algorithm on real robots by running the same controller on a real Pioneer-2. Although the robotic part of the controller should be easy to migrate, we will implement a real radio beaconing system based on actual Radiometrix RPC radios.

Depending on our success and level of interest, we may further extend the comparisons between the simulator and reality by trying different radio models and implementing additional controllers that use radio information.
