Description

Constantly increasing production volumes and new challenges in production environments with the same amount of space are forcing manufacturing companies to deal with the planning of production layouts. The problem often is a non-existent or outdated production layout plan. Autonomous multicopters can help by simplifying layout capture. That's why a voxel-based simulation is investigated to develop and train path planning algorithms with and without artificial intelligence. First, the temporal behavior and the resource utilization of the simulation is investigated. Then, the time factor of simulation is compared to real time and what advantages companies and developers have when using it.
