Abstract
This paper presents a comprehensive framework for 6G-enabled cooperative robotics, focusing on decentralized multi-robot Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM). We propose standardized communication protocols, data formats, and architectural principles to enable seamless real-time collaboration among robotic agents. A feature-based map representation is introduced to facilitate efficient and lightweight data exchange, while 6G network slicing is leveraged to ensure ultra-reliable, low-latency communication for both control and mapping traffic. We implement a decentralized multi-quadrotor SLAM system for feature tracking, validated through 3D simulations in a dynamic environment. Results demonstrate successful collaborative mapping and localization despite sensor noise and intermittent communication. The study highlights the transformative potential of 6G in enabling scalable, reliable, and efficient cooperative robotic systems.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
