Robotic warehouse management is a promising field of research with a high practical applicability. Typically, warehouses are strictly organized and controlled environments with a high potential for rapid robot deployments. To provide system robustness every robotic deployment should be tested in advance using simulations. Such virtual testing environment should correspond well with a real world warehouse environment and be consistent with international and national standards. In this paper, we present a warehouse Gazebo simulation that was constructed in accordance with Government Standards of Russian Federation and international standards. We implemented a simplified Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) transmitter-receiver mechanism within the Gazebo simulator and tested it in a virtual warehouse environment using a heterogeneous team of TIAGo Base mobile robot and PX4-based UAV. Our constructed virtual warehouse environment and RFID mechanism models are open-source for academic community use.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
