About
Mainak Biswas is a researcher in distributed robotics and swarm intelligence, with a focus on scalable algorithms for multi-robot systems. His most-cited work, "Multiple Uniform Circle Formation by Fat Robots Under Limited Visibility" (2023), addresses a fundamental challenge in swarm robotics: enabling robots with constrained sensing and physical size to form complex geometric patterns. Biswas proposes a novel distributed algorithm that allows "fat" robots—those with non-negligible physical dimensions—to coordinate under limited visibility, overcoming scalability issues that have long plagued swarm formation tasks. This contribution is critical for real-world applications like environmental monitoring and automated construction, where robots must operate with minimal communication and local information. With 2 citations to date, his work is gaining traction among researchers tackling the intersection of geometry, control, and distributed computing. Biswas’s research stands out for its practical emphasis on realistic robot constraints, bridging the gap between theoretical swarm algorithms and deployable systems. His ongoing work promises to advance the autonomy and efficiency of multi-robot teams in complex, unstructured environments.
