Abstract : In this paper we present a distributed algorithm, which enables to follow and surround moving objects by a swarm of homogenous robots that only use local sensing. We introduce the multi orbit surrounding problem and present a solution for it. We prove that our solution always guarantees that the robots enclose the target and circulate around them. We also evaluate our solution by simulations.
