Adaptive Motion Control for an Autonomous Mobile Robot Based on Space Risk Map
To make mobile robot move considerately, an adaptive motion control method integrated potential field method is proposed. Risk map is firstly defined to show the magnitude of risks in the empty spaces around objects, then the considerate path is ...

Simulation of hardware variations in swarm robots [PDF]
Swarm robotic systems can offer advantages of robustness, flexibility and scalability, just like social insects. One assumption that is made by the majority of swarm robotic researchers, particularly in software simulation, is that a robotic swarm is a ...
