In this paper we describe a novel decentralized control strategy to realize formations of mobile robots. We first describe a methodology to obtain a formation with the shape of a regular polygon. Then, applying a bijective coordinates transformation, we show how to obtain a formation with an arbitrary shape. Our control strategy is based on the interaction of some artificial potential fields, but it is not affected by the problem of local minima.

Abstract

In this paper we describe a novel decentralized control strategy to realize formations of mobile robots. We first describe a methodology to obtain a formation with the shape of a regular polygon. Then, applying a bijective coordinates transformation, we show how to obtain a formation with an arbitrary shape. Our control strategy is based on the interaction of some artificial potential fields, but it is not affected by the problem of local minima.
