Spatially targeted communication in decentralized multirobot systems
Spatially targeted communication (STC) allows amessage sender to choosemessage recipients based on their location in space. Currently, STC in multirobot systems is limited to centralized systems. In this paper, we propose a novel communication protocol that enables STC in decentralizedmultirobot systems.Theproposedprotocol dispenses with the many aspects that underpin previous approaches, inclu...
متن کاملDecentralized Discrete-Time Formation Control for Multirobot Systems
Inspired from the collective behavior of biological entities for the group motion coordination, this paper analyzes the formation control of mobile robots in discrete time where each robot can sense only the position of certain team members and the group behavior is achieved through the local interactions of robots. The main contribution is an original formal proof about the global convergence ...
متن کاملDecentralized Algorithms for Multirobot Manipulation via Caging
This paper addresses the problem of transporting objects with multiple mobile robots using the concept of object closure. In contrast to other manipulation techniques that are typically derived from form or force closure constraints, object closure requires the less stringent condition that the object be trapped or caged by the robots. Our basic goal in this paper is to develop decentralized co...
متن کاملEstablishing spatially targeted communication in a heterogeneous robot swarm
We consider a heterogeneous swarm consisting of aerial and wheeled robots. We present a system that enables spatially targeted communication. Our system enables aerial robots to establish dedicated communication links with individual wheeled robots or with selected groups of wheeled robots based on their position in the environment. The system does not rely on any form of global information. We...
متن کاملCooperation in a Heterogeneous Robot Swarm through Spatially Targeted Communication
We consider a heterogeneous swarm robotic system composed of wheeled and aerial robots called foot-bots and eye-bots, respectively. The foot-bots are able to physically connect to one another autonomously and thus form collective robotic entities. Eye-bots have a privileged overview of the environment since they can fly and attach to metal ceilings. In this paper, we show how the heterogeneous ...
