Distributed Control of Multi-Robot Systems Engaged in Tightly Coupled Tasks
NASA mission concepts for the upcoming decades of this century include exploration of sites such as steep cliff faces on Mars, as well as infrastructure deployment for a sustained robotic/manned presence on planetary and/or the lunar surface. Single robotic platforms, such as the Sojourner rover successfully flown in 1997 and the Mars Exploration Rovers (MER) which landed on Mars in January of ...
متن کاملTightly - coupled coordination of multi - robot systems for Mars exploration
AbstructSite construction operations by autonomous robotic systems are essential for a sustained robotic presence and human habitation on Mars. We report on the development of a softwarehardware framework for Cooperating multiple robots performing such tightly coordinated tasks. This work builds on our earlier research into autonomous planetary rovers and robot a m . Here, we seek to closely co...
متن کاملOptimal discrete-time control of robot manipulators in repetitive tasks
Optimal discrete-time control of linear systems has been presented already. There are some difficulties to design an optimal discrete-time control of robot manipulator since the robot manipulator is highly nonlinear and uncertain. This paper presents a novel robust optimal discrete-time control of electrically driven robot manipulators for performing repetitive tasks. The robot performs repetit...
متن کاملAn Architecture for Tightly Coupled Multi-Robot Cooperation
This paper proposes a new architecture for tightly coupled multi robot coordination that is well suited to cooperative manipulation tasks At all times a robot is identi ed as a leader while the others are desig nated as followers The assignment of roles and the coordination between the robots is guaranteed by com munication protocols and control algorithms The key feature is the exibility that ...
متن کاملDistributed control of multi-robot systems using bifurcating potential fields
The distributed control of multi-robot systems has been shown to have advantages over conventional single robot systems. These include scalability, flexibility and robustness to failures. This paper considers pattern formation and reconfigurability in a multi-robot system using bifurcating potential fields. It is shown how various patterns can be achieved through a simple free parameter change....
