This paper addresses the problem of cooperative transport of an object by a group of two simple autonomous mobile robots called s-bots. S-bots are able to establish physical connections between each other and with an object called the prey. The environment consists of a flat ground, the prey, and a light-emitting beacon. The task is to move the prey as far as possible in an arbitrary direction by pulling and/or pushing it. The object cannot be moved without coordination. There is no explicit communication among s-bots; moreover, the s-bots cannot sense each other. All experiments are carried out using a 3D physics simulator.
