Boundary following by robot formations without GPS
— We design sensing algorithms and a control law for a group of mobile robots to follow a boundary curve without utilizing a global positioning system (GPS). The sensing algorith...

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...

Effect of topological dimension on rigidity of vehicle formations: Fundamental limitations of local feedback
We consider the role of topological dimension in problems of network consensus and vehicular formations where only local feedback is available. In particular, we consider the simpl...
