Distributed Coordination of Networked Robots for Perimeter Surveillance Tasks

Perimeter surveillance is a relevant task which can be performed in a more efficient manner using multiple robots than a single robot. This chapter addresses the perimeter surveillance tasks using a team of heterogeneous robots and assuming limited communications conditions and zones with different priorities. A partitioning strategy, where the whole perimeter is divided in segments and these s...

Decentralized Control of Cooperative Robotic Vehicles

This paper describes how decentralized control theory can be used to control multiple cooperative robotic vehicles. Models of cooperation are discussed and related to the input/output reachability and structural observability and controllability of the entire system. Whereas decentralized control research in the past has concentrated on using decentralized controllers to partition complex physi...

Application of an Artificial Neural Tissue Controller to Multirobot Lunar ISRU Operations

Automation of mining and resource utilization processes on the Moon with teams of autonomous robots holds considerable promise for establishing a lunar base. We present an Artificial Neural Tissue (ANT) architecture as a control system for autonomous multirobot tasks. An Artificial Neural Tissue (ANT) approach requires much less human supervision and pre-programmed human expertise than previous...
