Sparse Robot Swarms: Moving Swarms to Real-World Applications [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Robotics and AI, 2020
Robot swarms are groups of robots that each act autonomously based on only local perception and coordination with neighboring robots. While current swarm implementations can be large in size (e.g., 1,000 robots), they are typically constrained to working in highly controlled indoor environments.

Robot swarming over the Internet [PDF]

open access: yes2012 American Control Conference (ACC), 2012
This paper considers cooperative control of robots involving two different testbed systems in remote locations with communication on the internet. This provides us the capability to exchange robots status like positions, velocities and directions needed for the swarming algorithm. The results show that all robots properly follow some leader defined one

Swarm Robotics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Collectively working robot teams can solve a problem more efficiently than a single robot, while also providing robustness and flexibility to the group. Swarm robotics model is a key component of a cooperative algorithm that controls the behaviors and interactions of all individuals.

Human Swarm Interaction: An Experimental Study of Two Types of Interaction with Foraging Swarms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper we present the first study of human-swarm interaction comparing two fundamental types of interaction, coined intermittent and environmental. These types are exemplified by two control methods, selection and beacon control, made available to

Comparison of Selection Methods in On-line Distributed Evolutionary Robotics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper, we study the impact of selection methods in the context of on-line on-board distributed evolutionary algorithms. We propose a variant of the mEDEA algorithm in which we add a selection operator, and we apply it in a taskdriven scenario. We

Underwater Swarm Robotics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Underwater swarm robotics today faces a series of challenges unique to its aquatic environment. This chapter explores some possible applications of underwater swarm robotics and its challenges. Those challenges include the environment itself, sensor types required, problems with communication and the difficulty in localisation.

Combining Blockchain and Swarm Robotics to Deploy Surveillance Missions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Current swarm robotics systems are not utilized as frequently in surveillance missions due to the limitations of the existing distributed systems\u27 designs.

Cooperative navigation in robotic swarms [PDF]

open access: yesSwarm Intelligence, 2013
We study cooperative navigation for robotic swarms in the context of a general event-servicing scenario. In the scenario, one or more events need to be serviced at specific locations by robots with the required skills. We focus on the question of how the swarm can inform its members about events, and guide robots to event locations.
