Multi-robot formation feasibility, formation control and formation state estimation have been subject of research at the ISLab since 200.
Formation Feasibility
We developed a systematic framework for studying formation motion feasibility of multiagent
systems. Algebraic conditions that guarantee formation feasibility (i.e., that the specified geometric constraints can be staisfied) given the individual robot kinematics were determined. Our framework also enables us to obtain lower dimensional control systems describing the group
kinematics while maintaining all formation constraints.
