Mobile Robot Formation Control
State-feedback formation control algorithms and simulation in V-REP with decentralized deep neural networks using only LiDAR input.
Project Overview
This project investigates distance-based formation control of a multi-robot system. A state-feedback formation control algorithm is designed for a three-robot system to maintain a precise geometric formation using relative position measurements.
Key Features
- Formation Control Theory: Designed and proved stability for a distance-based formation control algorithm using Lyapunov theory.
- V-REP/CoppeliaSim Simulation: Implemented a simulation environment featuring three differential-drive wheeled robots.
- Decentralized DNN Integration: Integrated control policies with a decentralized Deep Neural Network (DNN) that uses LiDAR ranges directly as input to generate smooth control commands while maintaining formation.
