This paper approaches the issue of coordination of highly autonomous Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) working on an automated factory. These vehicles are used for goods delivery t...
Most physically implemented multi-robot controllers are based on extensions of behavior-based systems. While efficient, such techniques suffer from weak representational power. Sy...
— This paper presents a dynamic and distributed reconfiguration planning algorithm for chain-type selfreconfigurable robots, by which a robot can autonomously self-reconfigure fr...
The Kiva warehouse management system creates a new paradigm for pick-pack-and-ship warehouses that significantly improves worker productivity. The Kiva system uses movable storag...
From an engineering point of view, the problem of coordinating a set of autonomous, mobile robots for the purpose of cooperatively performing a task has been studied extensively o...
