Modelling Automated Planning Problems for Teams of Mobile Manipulators in a Generic Industrial Scenario

Applied Sciences, 2022
Flexible control strategies are required in industrial scenarios to coordinate the actions of mobile manipulators (e.g., robots and humans). Temporal planning approaches can be used as such control strategies because they can generate those actions for ...
