It is a universal mode that map can be disposed at discrete state by using mobile robots’ charge coupled device(CCD).Cellular automata(CA) is a kind tool that it is suitable for simulating complicated large-scale systems
and its time state
space state and value state are discrete.And ant colony algorithm(ACA) is a mature theory that it is used to resolve the discrete optimization problem.Cellular ant model is a new path planning method that it unites CA with ACA.The experiment result shows that the new idea is feasible and effective.
