Effective multi-robot teams require the ability to move to goals in complex environments in order to address real-world applications such as search and rescue. Multi-robot teams should be able to operate in a completely decentralized…

The complex tasks such as surveillance, construction, search and rescue can benefit of the maneuverability of multirotor Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAVs) to obtain robust, cooperative system behavior and formation control is a prominent…

The study addresses the problem of quadcopter motion control using output feedback. By applying a geometric approach, the quadcopter model is transformed into a normal form with a time-varying gain coefficient, which is subsequently made…

This paper proposes a distributed coverage control strategy for quadcopters equipped with downward-facing cameras that prevents the appearance of unmonitored areas in between the quadcopters' fields of view (FOVs). We derive a necessary and…

A major challenge in autonomous flights is unknown disturbances, which can jeopardize safety and lead to collisions, especially in obstacle-rich environments. This paper presents a disturbance-aware motion planning and control framework…

This paper addresses the problem of event-based distributed Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control for multirobot coordination under localization uncertainty. An event-triggered LQG rendezvous control strategy is proposed to ensure…

This paper presents a robust distributed coordination protocol that achieves generation of collision-free trajectories for multiple unicycle agents in the presence of stochastic uncertainties. We build upon our earlier work on…

With the ever growing number of space debris in orbit, the need to prevent further space population is becoming more and more apparent. Refueling, servicing, inspection and deorbiting of spacecraft are some example missions that require…

Cooperative perception (CP) is attracting increasing attention and is regarded as the core foundation to support cooperative driving automation, a potential key solution to addressing the safety, mobility, and sustainability issues of…

In this paper, we present a real-time whole-body planner for collision-free legged mobile manipulation. We enforce both self-collision and environment-collision avoidance as soft constraints within a Model Predictive Control (MPC) scheme…

Multicopter swarms with decentralized structure possess the nature of flexibility and robustness, while efficient spatial-temporal trajectory planning still remains a challenge. This report introduces decentralized spatial-temporal…

While autonomous multi-robots can achieve safe and coordinated navigation, they often struggle to adapt to unforeseen conditions and to capture operator-driven objectives in unstructured environments. We present a Virtual Reality (VR)-based…

This paper presents a real-time trajectory planning scheme for a heterogeneous multi-robot system (consisting of a quadrotor and a ground mobile robot) for a cooperative landing task, where the landing position, landing time, and…

This paper proposes a fully decentralized model predictive control (MPC) framework with control barrier function (CBF) constraints for safety-critical trajectory planning in multi-robot legged systems. The incorporation of CBF constraints…

Transporting heavy or oversized slung loads using rotorcraft has traditionally relied on single-aircraft systems, which limits both payload capacity and control authority. Cooperative multilift using teams of rotorcraft offers a scalable…

Multi-robot teams have attracted attention from industry and academia for their ability to perform collaborative tasks in unstructured environments, such as wilderness rescue and collaborative transportation.In this paper, we propose a…

Cooperative platooning, enabled by cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC), is a cornerstone technology for connected automated vehicles (CAVs), offering significant improvements in safety, comfort, and traffic efficiency over…

While motion planning of locomotion for legged robots has shown great success, motion planning for legged robots with dexterous multi-finger grasping is not mature yet. We present an efficient motion planning framework for simultaneously…

Multiple mobile manipulators show superiority in the tasks requiring mobility and dexterity compared with a single robot, especially when manipulating/transporting bulky objects. However, closed-chain of the system, redundancy of each…

Continuum robots (CRs), owing to their compact structure, inherent compliance, and flexible deformation, have been widely applied in various fields. By coordinating multiple CRs to form collaborative continuum robots (CCRs), task…
