Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) In this paper, we propose a distributed algorithm to solve a gathering problem for autonomous mobile robots in a triangular grid plane without any global coordinate system. Every robot agrees on the one axis and chirality, and has limited visibility such that it can observe other robots within a constant distance from itself. Also, we prove an impossibility of gathering problem when every robot agrees chirality only (no agreement on any axis), and has limited visibility with distance 1.
