Description
This paper presents a project that intends to enable ecientimplementation of Multi-Agent systems on the Lego NXT robot commer-cial platform, programmable by using the well known Microsoft .NET C# language. The work presented shows mainly the tools developed and the experiences performed. Some examples of the available APIs are mentioned and discussed. The developed tools will enable ecient programming and easiness of communication using Bluetooth technologies that, in turn, allow very easy development of remote user interfaces on PCs and on portable (PDA) devices. Some experiments on a single robotic agent are described proving the ecient deployment of several low-level skills in the context of the framework developed
