Application (relative location awareness)
• Relative location to other robots within a group
• Communication of landmarks discovered by nodes, to entire group (or interested nodes)
• Distributed computation of decisions involving tactical manuevers

Required Characteristics
• Low power (sensors, actuators demand the majority of power)
• Long battery life• 3cm to 1m location awareness (dependant of
application)• Data rate not particularly an issue• Small and cheap• Able to configure and re-configure
communication mesh in ad-hoc fashion

Example mesh network of robots
• Swarm intelligence• Size of robot
dependant on application
• Existing methods have no location awareness, but good communication
