A formation behavior for large-scale micro-robot force deployment
Micro-robots will soon be available for deployment by the thousands. Consequently, controlling and coordinating a force this large to accomplish a prescribed task is of great inte...

A model-predictive approach to formation control of omnidirectional mobile robots
— This paper presents a solution to the problem of steering a group of real omnidirectional mobile robots along a given path, while maintaining a desired formation pattern. This ...

Three and higher dimensional autonomous formations: Rigidity, persistence and structural persistence
In this paper, we generalize the notion of persistence, which has been originally introduced for two-dimensional formations, to Rd for d 3, seeking to provide a theoretical framew...

A Distributed Method for Evaluating Properties of a Robot Formation
As a robot formation increases in size or explores places where it is difficult for a human operator to interact, autonomous control becomes critical. We propose a distributed aut...
