Graph-Based Distributed Control for Adaptive Multi-Robot Patrolling through Local Formation Transformation

Alcherio Martinoli, José Nuno Ferreira Maia Pereira, Alicja Barbara Roelofsen

Multi-robot cooperative navigation in real-world environments is essential in many applications, including surveillance and search-and-rescue missions. State-of-the-art methods for cooperative navigation are often tested in ideal laboratory conditions and ...

Towards 3-D Distributed Odor Source Localization: An Extended Graph-Based Formation Control Algorithm for Plume Tracking

Alcherio Martinoli, Ali Marjovi, Jorge Miguel Dias Almeida Rodrigues Soares, Jonathan Giezendanner, Anil Augustin Kodiyan

The large number of potential applications for robotic odor source localization has motivated the development of a variety of plume tracking algorithms, the majority of which work in restricted two-dimensional scenarios. In this paper, we introduce a distr ...

Incorporating Perception Uncertainty in Human-Aware Navigation: A Comparative Study

Alcherio Martinoli, Zeynab Talebpour

In this work, we present a novel approach to human-aware navigation by probabilistically modelling the uncertainty of perception for a social robotic system and investigating its effect on the overall social navigation performance. The model of the social ...

Electroencephalography as implicit communication channel for proximal interaction between humans and robot swarms

Francesco Mondada

Search and rescue, autonomous construction, and many other semi-autonomous multi-robot applications can benefit from proximal interactions between an operator and a swarm of robots. Most research on proximal interaction is based on explicit communication t ...
