Assembly as a noncooperative game of its pieces: analysis of 1D sphere assemblies

摘要

We propose an event-driven algorithm for the control of simple robot assembly problems based on noncooperative game theory. We examine rigorously the simplest setting – three bodies with one degree of freedom and offer extensive simulations for the 2 DOF extension. The initial analysis and the accompanying simulations suggest that this approach may indeed, offer an attractive means of building robust event driven assembly systems.
