Formation Control of Multiple Robots Using Parametric and Implicit Representations
نویسندگان
چکیده
A novel method is presented for formation control of a group of autonomous mobile robots using parametric and implicit descriptions of the desired formation. Shape formation is controlled by using potential fields generated from Implicit Polynomial (IP) representations and the control for keeping the desired shape is designed using Elliptical Fourier Descriptors (EFD). Coordination of the robots is modeled by linear springs between each robot and its nearest two neighbors. This approach offers more flexibility in the formation shape and scales well to different swarm sizes and to heterogeneous systems. The method is simulated on robot groups with different sizes to form various formation shapes.

Dynamical formation control of wheeled mobile robots based on fuzzy logic
In this paper, the important formation control problem of nonholonomic wheeled mobile robots is investigated via a leader-follower strategy. To this end, the dynamics model of the considered wheeled mobile robot is derived using Lagrange equations of motion. Then, using ADAMS multi-body simulation software, the obtained dynamics of the wheeled system in MATLAB software is verified. After that, ...

متن کاملImplicit Surface Modeling using Supershapes and R-functions
We propose a method to represent solid objects as multiple combinations of globally deformed supershapes. Our approach handles primitives that have both parametric and implicit representations. An implicit equation with guaranteed di erential properties is obtained by combinations of the primitives' implicit representations using R-functions. The surface corresponding to the zero-set of the imp...
