A survey on intelligent interaction and cooperative control of multi-robot systems

Abstract

Multi-robot systems have drawn the attention of many different research communities, such as physics, electronics, control, computer science, mathematics, and biology. Motivated by the growing popularity of multi-robot system and related coordination approaches, this paper surveys and analyzes the relevant literature, including six classification dimensions: system architectures, communication and robotic sensor networks, swarm intelligence and swarm robotics, cooperation among robots, applications, and research projects.
