Abstract

AbstractThis paper is concerned with control problems of multiple mobile robots such as wheeled mobile robots defined on Se(2) or free-flying robots defined on SO(3). If each robot were supposed to be controlled independently, the total number of control inputs would be the number of individual inputs times the number of robots. In this paper, we show that it is possible to reduce the number of control inputs where the whole system remains controllable by imposing artificial kinematic constraints between the robots, e.g., two wheeled mobile robots can be controllable with only 2 or 3 inputs. We also discuss what happens if we try to make the multiple robots track the reference trajectories.
