8 páginas, 9 figuras.-- Congreso celebrado en Bilbao (España) del 13 al 16 de Septiembre de 2010.-- Track 7: Intelligent Robots & Systems. ; This article presents a novel approach for solving people guidance in urban settings suported in Multi-Robot Task Allocation. The developed architecture overcomes some of the limitations of existing approaches, which are either tailored to tightly bounded environments, or based on unrealistic human behaviors. In particular we define a “Selfish Task Allocation”, the novelty of this proposal is the ability of robots to naturally cooperate if they need to do so, without the need to pre-set the interaction between them by an operator. Some simulated experiments about people guidance where robots are able to respond to real situations are presented; the failure of some robots, the group spliting up, people leaving the group, the addition of new elements to the team or the appearance of new tasks (lead other groups) are some of the situations being considered. ; Peer reviewed
