Kilobot and ARK simulation
From Kilobots
To simulate the Kilobot, we recommend using ARGoS simulator and its Kilobot plugin. Simulating the Kilobots using ARGoS offers numerous advantages <ref>Reference 1</ref>, including the ability to simulate the ARK system.
ARGoS simulates the ARK system as part of its Kilobot plugin through the so-called ARK loop function (ALF). The ALF loop function was developed in a way that facilitates the passage from the real system to the simulator and vice-versa. The Kilobot plugin comes with two examples of using ALF (i.e. simulating the ARK system). These examples can be found in src/examples/loop_functions/ARK_loop_functions folder within the Kilobot plugin.
