- Multi-agent communication is one of the key steps to complete a multi-robot formation. When the relative positions of multiple robots are unknown, the robots need to share each other's information through communication to facilitate the establishment of connections. ROS distributed architecture and network communications are very powerful. It is not only convenient for inter-process communication, but also for communication between different devices. Through network communication, all nodes can run on any computer. The main tasks such as data processing are completed on the host side. The slave machines are responsible for receiving environmental data collected by various sensors. The host here is the manager that runs the Master node in ROS. The current multi-agent communication framework is through a node manager and a parameter manager to handle communications among multiple robots.

The relevant parameters of the formation algorithm are as follows:
4.1.6 Obstacle avoidance in formation
In a multi-agent formation, the master can use the move_base node to complete obstacle avoidance.
However, the initialization of the slave does not use move_base node. At this point, the multi_avoidance node
