About
Pedro Roque is a leading researcher in cooperative robotics, focusing on the decentralized coordination of heterogeneous aerial-ground robot teams. His work addresses critical challenges in multi-robot systems, particularly for tasks like heavy payload transportation, agile manipulation, and formation control under real-world constraints. Roque’s most cited paper, "Decentralized Nonlinear MPC for Robust Cooperative Manipulation by Heterogeneous Aerial-Ground Robots" (2020, 20 citations), introduces a novel framework enabling robust collaboration between different robot types, a cornerstone for applications in logistics and industrial automation. His follow-up work, "Efficient Cooperation of Heterogeneous Robotic Agents" (2021, 14 citations), extends this to scalable, decentralized architectures for facilities like hospitals and warehouses. Roque also pioneered formation control for quadrotors under unidirectional communication constraints (2020, 7 citations) and contributed to space robotics with the "Space CoBot" design (2016, 3 citations), a holonomic aerial robot for microgravity environments like the ISS. With a total of 44 citations across his top papers, Roque’s research is shaping the future of collaborative autonomous systems, bridging theoretical advances with practical deployment in complex, human-centric environments.
