Abstract: ABSTRACT A MULTI-ROBOT COORDINATION SYSTEM FOR TASK PLANNING AND EXECUTION The present disclosure relates to a multi-robot coordination system (100) for task planning and execution in a dynamic environment. The system (100) comprises an event-aware task manager (102) configured to interpret user instructions, generate tasks, allocate tasks to one or more robot execution modules (106), and trigger event-driven replanning. A centralized navigation manager (104) is configured to maintain a global representation of an environment and generate coordinated navigation plans based on navigation requests. Each robot execution module (106) is configured to execute allocated tasks using robot-specific functions and transmit task status and event information. A formation manager (110) is configured to coordinate multi-robot behaviors. An event detection and reporting module (108) identifies relevant events during execution. A human interaction interface (112) enables natural language interaction, and a scenario configuration module (114) provides contextual deployment data. The system (100) enables dynamic task allocation, adaptive replanning, and coordinated execution across heterogeneous robots.
