METHOD FOR MINE SWEEPING Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC F41H11/16 

FIELD: rendering harmless of mines, in particular, methods for mine sweeping.

SUBSTANCE: the method supposes the presence of an excessive quantity of cheap independent mobile robots-sweepers based on the main self-powered platform. Destruction of mines is ensured due to blasting of the robots-sweepers on it. The gaps appearing as a result of blasting of separate robots-sweepers are restored by the reserve ones based on the main self-powered platform. When the reserve robots-sweepers are exhausted, the density of the row of moving robots-sweepers is restored due to the decrease of the mean density of it.

EFFECT: enhanced efficiency and safety of the process of mine sweeping due to the possibility of self-restoration of the group of the robots-sweepers by the reserve ones and use of remote control.
