Multi-Robot Indoor Environment Map Building Based on Multi-Stage Optimization Method

open access: yesComplex System Modeling and Simulation, 2021
For a multi-robot system, the accurate global map building based on a local map obtained by a single robot is an essential issue. The map building process is always divided into three stages: single-robot map acquisition, multi-robot map transmission ...

DiSCo-SLAM: Distributed Scan Context-Enabled Multi-Robot LiDAR SLAM With Two-Stage Global-Local Graph Optimization

open access: yesIEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, 2022
We propose a novel framework for distributed,multi-robot SLAM intended for use with 3D LiDAR observations. The framework, DiSCo-SLAM, is the first to use the lightweight Scan Context descriptor for multi-robot SLAM, permitting a data-efficient exchange ...

Multi-robot caravanning [PDF]

open access: yes2013 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, 2013
We study multi-robot caravanning, which is loosely defined as the problem of a heterogeneous team of robots visiting specific areas of an environment (waypoints) as a group. After formally defining this problem, we propose a novel solution that requires minimal communication and scales with the number of waypoints and robots.

Learning Interaction-Aware Trajectory Predictions for Decentralized Multi-Robot Motion Planning in Dynamic Environments [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, 2021
This letter presents a data-driven decentralized trajectory optimization approach for multi-robot motion planning in dynamic environments. When navigating in a shared space, each robot needs accurate motion predictions of neighboring robots to achieve ...

Centralized Mission Planning for Multiple Robots Minimizing Total Mission Completion Time

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Most mission planning algorithms solve multi-robot-multi-mission problems based on mixed integer linear programming. In these algorithms, the rewards (or costs) of missions for each robot are calculated according to the purpose of the user.

Temperature Sensing of Stepped-Metal Coated Optical Fiber Bragg Grating with the Restructured Dual-Peak Resonance

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
This paper demonstrates a method for the development of stepped-metal coating on optical fiber Bragg grating. The paper also analyzes the dual-peak resonance restructured by the nickel/copper stepped-metal coating. According to the coefficients of linear
