In this paper, a self-alignment approach based on cooperative behaviors is proposed for the docking process of modular mobile robots. Each cooperative behavior is modeled by means of artificial neural networks (ANN) to achieve a common goal. Based on RobMAT a modular robot system in the mobile configuration, two strategies are presented. For this purpose a robotic device simulator (Player) and a multi-robot simulation in 2D (Stage) are used. Experimental results display differences between both strategies and benefits in time execution.
