Coordinating Massive Robot Swarms
This chapter addresses the problem of how to coordinate the behavior of very large numbers of microrobots in order to assemble complex, hierarchically structured physical objects. The approach is patterned after morphogenetic processes during embryological development, in which masses of simple agents (cells) coordinate to produce complex three-dimensional structures. In order to ensure that th...
متن کاملRecovery in Autonomous Robot Swarms
A swarm of robots is composed of several small and simple robots that can communicate to perform complex tasks. Those robots are subject to failures: battery outage, hardware destruction, or hardware failure. When a robot fails, its whole state is lost. The task realized by this robot needs to be restarted then the swarm might need some data from the failed robot. Even when this data is not nee...
متن کاملAerial robot swarms
Vijay Kumar (www.seas.upenn.edu/~kumar) studies collective behaviors in biological and robotic systems. He and his research group design novel architectures, create abstractions for systems of interacting individuals, and develop new algorithms for cooperating robots. The overarching themes in his research include modeling nature and developing bioinspired architectures and algorithms, understa...
متن کاملKeeping Mobile Robot Swarms Connected
Designing robust algorithms for mobile agents with reliable communication is difficult due to the distributed nature of computation, in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) the matter is exacerbated by the need to ensure connectivity. Existing distributed algorithms provide coordination but typically assume connectivity is ensured by other means. We present a connectivity service that encapsulates a...
متن کاملCollective Construction with Robot Swarms
Social insects build large, complex structures, which emerge through the collective actions of many simple agents acting with no centralized control or preplanning. These natural systems inspire the research topic of collective construction, in which the goal is to engineer artificial systems that build in a similar way, with swarms of simple robots producing desired structures. In this chapter...
