Team of mobile robots working together

Hello dear community !

Is it possible to program in ROSDS, a team of two mobile robots carrying a large cargo, while avoiding obstacles (dynamic and static both)? Something similar to this –
Team Work

Although here one robot is leader and other is helper, is it possible to keep both leader ? Say if the cargo is supposed to be moved back and forth, or to be rotated about central vertical axis ?
Is it possible to create a code collaboratively?

Hi,

That sounds like a really interesting but complicated project.

Something you could try would be to implement navigation for one robot and have the other follow by listening to the leader’s TF frame, but I don’t know if this would be quick enough for both of them to move as a unit.

The other option is actually implementing that dynamic attraction described in the article you shared

Let me know what you can come up with
