곡률 반경을 이용한 군집 로봇의 대형 제어

摘要

This paper presents a new method to control swarm robots so that they can keep the formation while following a curved path. The main idea is to utilize the information on the instant center of gyration. For a given path, location of the instant center of the formation center is calculated, and individual robots follow the circular path around the calculated instant center. Performance of curvature-radius based method is compared with leader-follower referenced method via MATLAB simulation.
