— We address the synthesis of controllers for large groups of robots and sensors, tackling the specific problem of controlling a swarm of robots to generate patterns specified ...
Abstract— In this paper, we address navigation and coordination methods that allow swarms of robots to converge and spread along complex 2D shapes in environments containing unkn...
We present an algorithm that allows swarms of robots to navigate in environments containing unknown obstacles, moving towards and spreading along 2D shapes given by implicit funct...
The swarm intelligence paradigm has proven to have very interesting properties such as robustness, flexibility and ability to solve complex problems exploiting parallelism and self...

The purpose of this contribution is twofold: 1) to present for the first time a Lyapunov function that proves exponential ergodicity of a process studied by the authors in [1], whe...
