@moxigen the colors allow to create the lines, allowing each robot to recognize its own line with the camera

  @logtothebase2 We checked these issues carefully with the parents and the child in advance. The video gives a wrong image of the situation: the child was happy (and told "wow") when the robots started to pull but then did not know what to do, which is the reason for the "lost" expression. On the ...

  @CymroGoch Yes, this could be a nice idea. In our experiment this was static, but yes, you could make this in a dynamic way. Our new generation of robot (marXbot) could much better do this (better camera and light).

  @seanandthat : Comparing this approach with, for instance, the use of a single big robot, to understand advantages and disadvantages of a distributed approach.

  The color is pre-programmed. Four groups are defined in advance, each group having a defined color (in fact two groups have the same color but are the two lateral ones, separated by the other groups). Each robot knows which group he belongs to and which is the corresponding color. It is attracted...
