Abstract
The deployment of teams of autonomous mobile robots provides potential by leveraging the strengths of individual robots and compensating for their disadvantages. This makes them particularly well suited to carrying out complex scenarios for logistics, environmental monitoring or search and rescue. However, the success of such teams relies on achieving seamless interoperability among differing robots. In the area of the Internet of Robotic Things (IoRT), addressing this interoperability challenge becomes paramount. Therefore, an interoperable communication concept is introduced that considers interoperability based on semantic, syntactic, and technical clusters. It is designed to meet the specific requirements of multimodal autonomous mobile robots. Based on legal considerations, this method enables the integration and collaboration of different autonomous mobile robots in real-life applications. A logistics scenario involving multiple autonomous mobile robots illustrates the applicability of this interoperable communication concept.
