Algorithms for Control and Interaction of Large Formations of Robots
NSF and NASA sponsored a workshop to discuss harvesting solar power in space. One solution considered was the use of a swarm of robots to form a solar reflector. How can these rob...

Path formation in a robot swarm
We present two swarm intelligence control mechanisms used for distributed robot path formation. In the first, the robots form linear chains. We study three variants of robot chains...

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 ...
