Abstract:

A large number of advancements have taken place in microprocessor-based systems leading to significantly more processing, memory, storage, sensing, actuating, recognition, controlling and communication capabilities. Robotics is one of the areas that have benefited a lot from these advancements. Many important and useful applications for single-robot and multi-robot systems (MRS) have emerged. Such applications include search and rescue, detection of forest fires, mining, construction, disaster management, and many more. MRS systems greatly enhance the capabilities and effectiveness of today’s robots. They extend the robotic system capabilities by increasing the ability to perform more complex tasks and allow performance of inherently distributed ones. In addition, they increase parallelism, enhance robustness, and improve system reliability. However, to perform their tasks in an effective manner, communication between the individual robots becomes an essential component. In this paper, we discuss the various types and architectures of MRS systems and focus on the networking issues, and services that are required to enable MRS systems to be more efficient in performing their roles in their respective applications. We also identify the similarities and differences between mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) and MRS systems, analyze robot-to-robot (R2R) and robot-to-infrastructure (R2I) communication links, and identify the protocols that can be used at the various levels in the MRS hierarchy.

Abstract:

The use of robots has increased significantly in the recent years; rapidly expending to numerous applications. These sophisticated machines are susceptible to different types of faults that might endanger the robot or its surroundings. These faults must be detected and diagnosed in time to allow continual operation. The field of Fault Detection and Diagnosis (FDD) has been studied for many years. This research has given birth to many approaches that are applicable to different types of physical machines. However, the domain of robotics poses unique requirements that challenge traditional FDD approaches. The study of FDD for robotics is relatively new; only few surveys were presented. These surveys have focused on the single robot scenario. To the best of our knowledge, there is no survey that focuses on FDD for Multi-Robot Systems (MRS). In this paper we set out to fill this gap. This paper provides detailed insights to the world of FDD for MRS. We first describe how different attributes of MRS pose different challenges for FDD. With respect to these challenges, we survey different FDD approaches applicable for MRS. We conclude with a description of research opportunities in this field. With these contributions it is the authors’ intention to provide detailed insights to the world of FDD for MRS.

Abstract:

One of the most important aspects in the design of multi-robot systems (MRS) is the allocation of tasks among the robots in a productive and efficient manner. This paper presents an empirical study on task allocation strategies in multirobot environment. In general, optimal solutions are found through an exhaustive search, but because there are n × m ways in which m tasks can be assigned to n robots, an exhaustive search is often not possible with increased number of tasks. Task allocation methodologies for multirobot systems are developed by considering their capability in terms of time and space. The present work adopts a two-phase methodology to allocate tasks optimally amongst the candidate robots. The allocation cost of the robots is determined during the first phase and alternate algorithms are used in the second phase for optimizing the allocation. The work considers systems of practical sizes and the results obtained through this are helpful in recommending appropriate techniques to the users of MRS for increasing producibility and robot utilization. Three different approaches using Linear programming, Hungarian Algorithm and Knapsack Algorithm are presented and their results are analyzed for the suitability of the methods for an allocation problem. Simulation results are presented and compared for the benefit of the users.

Abstract:

Among the challenges in the field of the paper we have identified the necessity of control methods and tools of mobile robots (MRS) equipped with robot manipulator (RM) serving assembly/ disassembly mechatronic lines (A/DML).The framework of the work reported here is represented by SMART&ASTI A/DML served by two MRs with RM, working collaboratively and the goal is development of a multi-agent system able control interactively trajectories of MRs, working collaboratively to serve the A/DML, by avoiding the collisions between them. The advantage offered by the proposed solution consists in graphical representation of the trajectory of MRs working collaboratively, as well as the current status of them, while the users are able to interact intuitively with the MRs trough the proposed GUI The added value of the paper consists in the implementation of multi-agents systems in a complex A/DML served by two MRs equipped with RM, working collaboratively, the increased autonomy in communication between the entities of entire system, and the adaptive control of MRs trajectories.

Abstract:

Multirobot systems (MRSs) are capable of solving task complexity, increasing performance in terms of maximizing spatial/temporal/radio coverage or minimizing mission completion time. They are also more reliable than single-robot systems as robustness is increased through redundancy. Many applications such as rescue, reconnaissance, and surveillance and communication relaying require the MRS to be able to self-organize the team members in a decentralized way. Group formation is one of the benchmark problems in MRS to study self-organization in these systems. This paper presents a hybrid approach to group formation problem in multi-robot systems. This approach combines the efficiency of the cellular automata as finite state machine, the interconnectivity of the virtual grid and its bonding technique, and last but not least the decentralization of the adaptive dynamic leadership.

Abstract:

Multi-robot systems (MRS) have gained significant attention due to their potential applications in various domains such as search and rescue, surveillance, and exploration. An essential aspect of MRS is task allocation, which involves distributing tasks among robots efficiently to achieve collective objectives. Swarm-based optimization algorithms have emerged as effective approaches for task allocation in MRS, leveraging principles inspired by natural swarms to coordinate the actions of multiple robots. This paper provides a comprehensive review of swarm-based optimization algorithms for task allocation in MRS, highlighting their principles, advantages, challenges, and applications. The discussion encompasses key algorithmic approaches, including ant colony optimization, particle swarm optimization, and artificial bee colony optimization, along with recent advancements and future research directions in this field.

Abstract:

Designing cooperative multi-robot systems (MRS) requires expert knowledge both in control and artificial intelligence. Formation control is an important research within the research field of MRS. Since many researchers use different ways in approaching formation control, we try to give a taxonomy in order to help researchers design formation systems in a systematical way. We can analyze formation structures in two categories: control abstraction and robot distinguishability. The control abstraction can be divided into three layers: formation shape, reference type, and robotic control. Furthermore, robots can be classified as anonymous robots or identification robots depending on whether robots are distinguishable according to their inner states. We use this taxonomy to analyze some ground-based formation systems and to state current challenges of formation control. Such information becomes the design know-how in developing a formation system, and a case study of designing a multi-team formation system is introduced to demonstrate the usefulness of the taxonomy.

Abstract:

Abstract Teams consisting of cooperating mobile robots are able to carry out tasks faster and more effectively than individual robots. Previous research projects have focused on teams of homogeneous robots in particular, whereas heterogeneous robots are becoming increasingly important. In this paper, the fundamentals of both homogeneous and heterogeneous robot teams are examined. In this context, not only key fundamentals are distinguished from each other, but also potential applications and advantages of multi-robot systems (MRS) are shown. The rapid development of autonomous MRS is shown by means of exemplarily selected research projects, whereby the individual approaches of these projects are systematically compared and evaluated. Finally, an outlook on remaining challenges in the field of autonomous heterogeneous MRS is given.

Abstract:

The intelligent warehouse is a modern logistics management system that uses technologies like the Internet of Things, robots, and artificial intelligence to realize automated management and optimize warehousing operations. The multi-robot system (MRS) is an important carrier for implementing an intelligent warehouse, which completes various tasks in the warehouse through cooperation and coordination between robots. As an extension of reinforcement learning and a kind of swarm intelligence, MARL (multi-agent reinforcement learning) can effectively create the multi-robot systems in intelligent warehouses. However, MARL-based multi-robot systems in intelligent warehouses face serious safety issues, such as collisions, conflicts, and congestion. To deal with these issues, this paper proposes a safe MARL method based on runtime verification, i.e., an optimized safety policy-generation framework, for multi-robot systems in intelligent warehouses. The framework consists of three stages. In the first stage, a runtime model SCMG (safety-constrained Markov Game) is defined for the multi-robot system at runtime in the intelligent warehouse. In the second stage, rPATL (probabilistic alternating-time temporal logic with rewards) is used to express safety properties, and SCMG is cyclically verified and refined through runtime verification (RV) to ensure safety. This stage guarantees the safety of robots’ behaviors before training. In the third stage, the verified SCMG guides SCPO (safety-constrained policy optimization) to obtain an optimized safety policy for robots. Finally, a multi-robot warehouse (RWARE) scenario is used for experimental evaluation. The results show that the policy obtained by our framework is safer than existing frameworks and includes a certain degree of optimization.

Abstract:

This paper presents a comparative study between optimization-based and market-based approaches used for solving the Multirobot task allocation (MRTA) problem that arises in the context of multirobot systems (MRS). The two proposed approaches are used to find the optimal allocation of a number of heterogeneous robots to a number of heterogeneous tasks. The two approaches were extensively tested over a number of test scenarios in order to test their capability of handling complex heavily constrained MRS applications that include extended number of tasks and robots. Finally, a comparative study is implemented between the two approaches and the results show that the optimization-based approach outperforms the market-based approach in terms of optimal allocation and computational time.

Abstract:

This paper presents an innovative task allocation method for multi-robot systems that aims to optimize task distribution while taking into account various performance metrics such as efficiency, speed, and cost. Contrary to conventional approaches, the proposed method takes a comprehensive approach to initialization by integrating the K-means clustering algorithm, the Hungarian method for solving the assignment problem, and a genetic algorithm specifically adapted for Open Loop Travel Sales Man Problem (OLTSP). This synergistic combination allows for a more robust initialization, effectively grouping similar tasks and robots, and laying a strong foundation for the subsequent optimization process. The suggested method is flexible enough to handle a variety of situations, including Multi-Robot System (MRS) with robots that have unique capabilities and tasks of varying difficulty. The method provides a more adaptable and flexible solution than traditional algorithms, which might not be able to adequately address these variations because of the heterogeneity of the robots and the complexity of the tasks. Additionally, ensuring optimal task allocation is a key component of the suggested method. The method efficiently determines the best task assignments for robots through the use of a systematic optimization approach, thereby reducing the overall cost and time needed to complete all tasks. This contrasts with some existing methods that might not ensure optimality or might have limitations in their ability to handle a variety of scenarios. Extensive simulation experiments and numerical evaluations are carried out to validate the method's efficiency. The extensive validation process verifies the suggested approach's dependability and efficiency, giving confidence in its practical applicability.

Abstract:

The development in Multi-Robot Systems (MRS) has become one of the most exploited fields of research in robotics in recent years. This is due to the robustness and versatility they present to effectively undertake a set of tasks autonomously. One of the essential elements for several vehicles, in this case, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), to perform tasks autonomously and cooperatively is trajectory planning, which is necessary to guarantee the safe and collision-free movement of the different vehicles. This document includes the planning of multiple trajectories for a swarm of UAVs based on 3D Probabilistic Roadmaps (PRM). This swarm is capable of reaching different locations of interest in different cases (labeled and unlabeled), supporting of an Emergency Response Team (ERT) in emergencies in urban environments. In addition, an architecture based on Robot Operating System (ROS) is presented to allow the simulation and integration of the methods developed in a UAV swarm. This architecture allows the communications with the MavLink protocol and control via the Pixhawk autopilot, for a quick and easy implementation in real UAVs. The proposed method was validated by experiments simulating building emergences. Finally, the obtained results show that methods based on probability roadmaps create effective solutions in terms of calculation time in the case of scalable systems in different situations along with their integration into a versatile framework such as ROS.

Abstract:

The current industrial scenario demands advances that depend on expensive and sophisticated solutions. Augmented Reality (AR) can complement, with virtual elements, the real world. Faced with this features, an AR experience can meet the demand for prototype testing and new solutions, predicting problems and failures that may only exist in real situations. This work presents an environment for experimentation of advanced behaviors in smart factories, allowing experimentation with multi-robot systems (MRS), interconnected, cooperative, and interacting with virtual elements. The concept of ARENA introduces a novel approach to realistic and immersive experimentation in industrial environments, aiming to evaluate new technologies aligned with the Industry 4.0. The proposed method consists of a small-scale warehouse, inspired in a real scenario characterized in this paper, managing by a group of autonomous forklifts, fully interconnected, which are embodied by a swarm of tiny robots developed and prepared to operate in the small scale scenario. The AR is employed to enhance the capabilities of swarm robots, allowing box handling and virtual forklifts. Virtual laser range finders (LRF) are specially designed as segmentation of a global RGB-D camera, to improve robot perception, allowing obstacle avoidance and environment mapping. This infrastructure enables the evaluation of new strategies to improve manufacturing productivity, without compromising the production by automation faults.

Abstract:

The transportation of large payloads can be made possible with Multi-Robot Systems (MRS) implementing cooperative strategies. In this work, we focus on the coordinated MRS trajectory planning task exploiting a Model Predictive Control (MPC) framework addressing both the acting robots and the transported load. In this context, the main challenge is the possible occurrence of a temporary mismatch among agents’ actions with consequent formation errors that can cause severe damage to the carried load. To mitigate this risk, the coordination scheme may leverage a leader–follower approach, in which a hierarchical strategy is in place to trade-off between the task accomplishment and the dynamics and environment constraints. Nonetheless, particularly in narrow spaces or cluttered environments, the leader’s optimal choice may lead to trajectories that are infeasible for the follower and the load. To this aim, we propose a feasibility-aware leader–follower strategy, where the leader computes a reference trajectory, and the follower accounts for its own and the load constraints; moreover, the follower is able to communicate the trajectory infeasibility to the leader, which reacts by temporarily switching to a conservative policy. The consistent MRS co-design is allowed by the MPC formulation, for both the leader and the follower: here, the prediction capability of MPC is key to guarantee a correct and efficient execution of the leader–follower coordinated action. The approach is formally stated and discussed, and a numerical campaign is conducted to validate and assess the proposed scheme, with respect to different scenarios with growing complexity.

In this study, the Coordinated Hybrid Agent (CHA) framework for the control of Multi-Agent Systems (MASs) is applied for a heterogeneous multi-agent system. The system consists of a mobile robot, an overhead crane, and a robot manipulator. The final goal for this project is to implement coordination tasks for the system. In this framework, the control of the MAS is regarded as a decentralized control and coordination of agents. A coordination rule base is developed for the intelligent coordination control layer. Experiments show that the framework is able to model the heterogeneous multi-agent systems.

Abstract:

Motion planning for manipulators with many degrees of freedom is a complex task. The research in this area has been mostly restricted to static environments. This paper presents a comparative analysis of three reactive on-line path-planning methods for manipulators: the elastic-strip, strategy-based and potential field methods. Both the elastic-strip method [O. Brock and O. Khatib, “Elastic strips: A framework for integrated planning and execution,” Int. Symp. Exp. Robot. 245–254 (1999)] and the potential field method [O. Khatib, “Real-time obstacle avoidance for manipulators and mobile robots,” Int. J. Robot. Res.5(1), 90–98 (1986)] have been adapted by the authors to the problem at hand related to our multi-manipulator system (MMS) (three manipulators with five degrees of freedom each). Strategy-based method is an original contribution by the authors [M. Mediavilla, J. L. González, J. C. Fraile and J. R. Perán, “Reactive approach to on-line path planning for robot manipulators in dynamic environments,” Robotica20, 375–384 (2002); M. Mediavilla, J. C. Fraile, T. González and I. J. Galindo, “Selection of strategies for collision-free motion in multi-manipulator systems,” J. Intell. Robot Syst38, 85–104 (2003)].The three methods facilitate on-line path planning for our MMS in dynamic environments with collision avoidance, where the three manipulators may move at the same time in their common workspace. We have defined some ‘basic motion problems’ for the MMS, and a series of simulations has been running that will tell us how effective each path-planning method is. The simulations have been performed and the obtained results have been analysed by using a software program developed by the authors.The paper also presents experimental results obtained applying the path-planning methods to our MMS, that perform pick-and-place tasks sharing common working areas.

Abstract:

Roboticized nursing technology is a significant means to implement efficient elderly care and improve their welfare. Introducing multi-heterogeneous robot systems (MHRS) and sensor networks into a smart home is a promising approach to improve the safety and acceptability of elderly care services in daily life. Among them, the energy consumption and task planning of MHRS determine nursing safety, which is particularly important in the real nursing process. Therefore, we established a novel smart home for elderly care based on seven heterogeneous nursing robots, and proposed a multi-robot task allocation (MRTA) algorithm, considering execution time and energy consumption. The whole system efficiency makes up for the functional limitations and service continuity of traditional MHRS. To realize efficiently conducted multitasks, we established an architecture with centralized task allocation center, robot alliance layer and distributed execution layer for the MHRS. The self-organizing architecture contributes to overall task allocation, communication and adaptive cooperative control between different robots. Then, to clearly describe the continuous nursing process with multiple simultaneous demands and emergency tasks, we modeled the whole nursing process with continuity, multi-priority, and interpretability. A novel MRTA algorithm with a dynamic bidding mechanism was proposed. Comprehensive experiments showed that the proposed algorithm could effectively solve the three key problems of multi-priority tasks, multi-robot safe and adaptive cooperation, and emergency task call in the scene of elderly care. The proposed architecture regarding the smart home could be applied in nursing centers, hospitals, and other places for elderly care.

Robot Soccer provides a good experimental platform for the automatic control, artificial intelligence, robotics and other researches. A soccer robot system is also a typical multi-agent systems(MAS). Every robot in a soccer team is an agent,so the collaboration between agents, the rational apportionment of the robots' roles and the capacity for actions of the robots is the key to winning game. We present a strategy which is based on dynamic programming algorithm and genetic algorithm. Every robot has fitness to each role through which to carry out the dynamic role assignment, meanwhile, the parameters of the fitness functions could be optimized by genetic algorithm.

Abstract:

SummaryFor a robotic workcell with multiple robots, several interconnection methods are presented in terms of a processor-based architecture. The concept of the multiple processor system (MPS) or multiple computer system (MCS) is used to formulate and analyze the multi-robot interconnection system (MRIS). The MRIS is modelled as a queueing network, and mathematical analysis is done on the basis of modelling. Performance evaluation is achieved for the MRIS through the mean value analysis with the response time and the probability of service failure under different workloads. The results together with some comments suggest a useful guideline for a selecting an appropriate interconnection method for the MRIS subject to the system environment and application.

Abstract:

Since group consensus (GC) control accounts for one-half of the multi-robot coordination domain, as does complete consensus control, this paper will formulate a certain kind of GC and group bipartite consensus (GBC) in finite time for multi-agent systems (MAS). It should be noted that the key to this work is that information transfer under acyclic partition networks is zero-sum between groups and the cooperative–competitive interaction. The general GC will firstly be achieved under acyclic partition, which reflects the fact that such topology allows the MAS to reach agreement in an ordered and hierarchical process. Further, the information communication is zero-sum within each group under the acyclic partition signed digraph. Thus, the group–bipartite agreement for MAS is given under acyclic bipartite topology. These results display not only an ordered, hierarchical state, but also an intra-group symmetric state. In addition, simulation examples are presented in parallel with the theoretical results.

Abstract:

This paper presents a conceptual model of an agent (called Collaborator Agent) intended to design collaborative software architectures based on multi-agent systems. The authors’ model combines astutely two research areas: Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) and Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW). The particularity of their approach is the division of the collaborative process into three spaces according to Ellis' 3C model: communication, coordination and production. In their work, the authors extend the 3C model by adding a fourth space: collaboration. Hence, the authors present a model based on four types of agents (collaboration, communication, coordination and production) supporting the whole set of collaborative tasks. The model is used to create the conceptual software architecture of their MAS. The authors apply their conceptual model on the ARITI-C system for collaborative online robot teleoperation. Finally, the authors present a quantitative evaluation of the collaboration process in ARITI-C.

Abstract:

The purpose of this paper is to model and simulate a 6 DOF robotic system with revolute joints. This is in order to optimize the motion law which results in uniform coating deposited by spray pyrolysis. The structure and the complexity of the robotic system are determined by the necessary movements in the spray pyrolysis process. The nozzle (end-effector of the robot manipulator) has two translations, in longitudinal and transversal direction relative to the surface deposition. The mechanical model of the robot mechanism was developed by using the MBS (Multi Body Systems) environment ADAMS of MSC Software.

Abstract:

This work addresses the issue of multi-agent system (MAS) formation control under external disturbances and a directed communication topology. Firstly, a new disturbance observer is proposed to effectively reconstruct and compensate for external disturbances within a short period of time. Then, the integral terminal sliding mode technology is introduced to devise a novel distributed formation control protocol, ultimately realizing the stability of the MAS within a fixed time. Moreover, by means of rigorous Lyapunov theory analyses, a faster formation convergence rate and more accurate consensus accuracies are achieved in the proposed fixed-time strategy with variable exponent form. Finally, the formation tracking control scheme is applied to a multi-wheeled mobile robot (WMR) system. The experimental results strongly support the fine effectiveness of the control scheme designed in this work.

Abstract:

The cooperative control problem of discrete-time multi-agent systems (MASs) is discussed, and bounded uncertain time-delays and directed switching topologies are considered. By applying model transformations and matrix theory, an augmented system method is introduced to handle a heterogeneous time-delay MAS. Then, the consensus problem of the system is turned to the convergence issue of the product of innumerable row stochastic matrices. Sufficient conditions for asymptotic consensus of the system under directed switching topologies are obtained. Moreover, a novel consensus-based formation control strategy is designed to gain sufficient and necessary conditions for the formation control of a second-order differential robot system. Finally, the effectiveness of the obtained results is verified through simulations.

Abstract:

Over the years, Mobile Mapping Systems (MMSs) have been widely applied to urban mapping, path management and monitoring and cyber city, etc. The key concept of mobile mapping is based on positioning technology and photogrammetry. In order to achieve the integration, multi-sensor integrated mapping technology has clearly established. In recent years, the robotic technology has been rapidly developed. The other mapping technology that is on the basis of low-cost sensor has generally used in robotic system, it is known as the Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM). The objective of this study is developed a prototype of indoor MMS for mobile mapping applications, especially to reduce the costs and enhance the efficiency of data collection and validation of direct georeferenced (DG) performance. The proposed indoor MMS is composed of a tactical grade Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), the Kinect RGB-D sensor and light detection, ranging (LIDAR) and robot. In summary, this paper designs the payload for indoor MMS to generate the floor plan. In first session, it concentrates on comparing the different positioning algorithms in the indoor environment. Next, the indoor plans are generated by two sensors, Kinect RGB-D sensor LIDAR on robot. Moreover, the generated floor plan will compare with the known plan for both validation and verification.

Abstract:

To increase the knowledge and exploit new resources beyond the Earth, planetary surface exploration on the Moon or Mars attracts significant attention around the globe. Due to the fact that these planetary surfaces are widely covered by soil-like materials, various structures of planetary rovers have been proposed to adapt to the terrains. Nonetheless, the traditional rover structures, such as wheeled and leg-wheeled, have shown limitations in moving on granular soils. To improve the mobility, this paper proposes a multi-toe quadruped robot inspired by the desert chameleon animal. The key features are that each bionic foot possesses four toes to stabilize them on granular materials. Moreover, a bionic flexible spine is designed to coordinate with walking and turning gaits and to make the robot approach an animal-like mobility. To assess the robot performances, kinematics analysis and analytical modeling of foot, leg, and spine movements are carried out. The results demonstrate that this robot can effectively walk and turn in accordance with the adopted gaits. Finally, field tests of moving over sands have been conducted. It shows that the robot can stably walk and turn on sands, which indicates that it is adaptable to planetary granular terrains.

Abstract:

When performing a specific task, a Multi-Agent System (MAS) not only needs to coordinate the whole formation but also needs to coordinate the dynamic relationship among all the agents, which means judging and adjusting their positions in the formation according to their location, velocity, surrounding obstacles and other information to accomplish specific tasks. This paper devises an integral separation feedback method for a single-agent control with a developed robot motion model; then, an enhanced strategy incorporating the dynamic information of the leader robot is proposed for further improvement. On this basis, a method of combining second-order formation control with path planning is proposed for multiple-agents following control, which uses the system dynamic of one agent and the Laplacian matrix to generate the consensus protocol. Due to a second-order consensus, the agents exchange information according to a pre-specified communication digraph and keep in a certain following formation. Moreover, an improved path planning method using an artificial potential field is developed to guide the MAS to reach the destination and avoid collisions. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is verified with simulation results in different scenarios.

Abstract:

In this paper, a time-varying formation tracking protocol for second-order multi-sgent systems (MASs) is presented. The time-varying formation considers translation, rotation, and scaling of the geometric pattern that defines the formation. The control law is simple yet effective, and it is composed of a trajectory tracking control and a consensus control that considers the position and velocity feedback of the connected agents in the MAS. The closed-loop system is asymptotically stable, and this was proved using the Gershgoring’s disk theorem. The performance of the protocol was extensively tested in experiments using a dynamic extension of the differential-drive robot model. The protocol was tested for different communication topologies and also dealt with switching topologies. The proposed protocol presented good performance regaring both time-varying formation and topology changes. Moreover, a comparison with an existing controller and with only trajectory tracking control has been provided, thus showing that the proposed protocol preserves the formation for all the tested topologies in a better way.

Abstract:

The purpose of this article is to investigate a suitable path planning algorithm for a multi-agent-based Plug & Produce system that can run online during manufacturing. This is needed since in such systems, resources can move around frequently, making it hard to manually create robot paths. To find a suitable algorithm and verify that it can be used online in a Plug & Produce system, a comparative study between various existing sampling-based path planning algorithms was conducted. Much research exists on path planning carried out offline; however, not so much is performed in online path planning. The specific requirements for Plug & Produce are to generate a path fast enough to eliminate manufacturing delays, to make the path energy efficient, and that it run fast enough to complete the task. The paths are generated in a simulation environment and the generated paths are tested for robot configuration errors and errors due to the target being out of reach. The error-free generated paths are then tested on an industrial test bed environment, and the energy consumed by each path was measured and validated with an energy meter. The results show that all the implemented optimal sampling-based algorithms can be used for some scenarios, but that adaptive RRT and adaptive RRT* are more suitable for online applications in multi-agent systems (MAS) due to a faster generation of paths, even though the environment has more constraints. For each generated path the computational time of the algorithm, move-along time and energy consumed are measured, evaluated, compared, and presented in the article.

Abstract:

In this paper, the approach and main advances made in multi-process hybrid production cells (HyProCell) for rapid individualised laser-based production are compiled and discussed, including highlights and achievements. HyProCell constructs automated manufacturing platforms that integrate highly flexible laser-based additive build processes with more conventional yet precise subtractive machining processes and include novel solutions like automatic powder removal system/machines and robot arms in integrated multi-process production cells. The HyProCell approach can either build parts additively from scratch and finish them in a coherent production single line/cell or prepare parts by machining and add laser-based additive features, achieving otherwise impossible shapes. In addition to producing new parts, existing parts can be repaired or improved by adding new details with the HyProCell hybrid concept. The research work includes the design of pilot cell facilities, the development of the, and a new modular architecture including a middleware and integration layer to ensure automation with improved pallet handling systems. Finally, the MES and data management methodologies for future improvements and pilot facility implementation were made.

Abstract:

Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is one of the most challenging tasks in surgical procedures due to the lack of visibility of the surgical area, instrument orientation, and depth perception. A tele-operated robot assisted minimally invasive surgery is developed to enhance a surgeon's hand dexterity and accuracy. To perform MIS, the surgeon controls a slave manipulator via a master manipulator, so the force feedback and motion feedback are required to imitate an amount of action and reaction force between master and slave manipulator. The complicated MIS requires more complex surgical manipulator with multi DOFs and multiple force feedback. The limitation of multiple DOFs force feedback is a bandwidth of torque sensors. Therefore, this study proposes a sensorless based 5-DOF Bilaterally controlled surgical manipulation. In this research disturbance observer (DOB) is used to identify the internal disturbance of the system, which is used to estimate the reaction torque. This research mainly focuses on a 5-DOF bilaterally controlled surgical manipulator to maintain a position and additional force. The result of torque error in contact motion is less than 2%, the non-contact motion error is not over 5%, and it is evident that the error is always less than 0.3% for the position response.

Abstract:

Abstract Multi-Robot System (MRS) is composed of a group of robots that work cooperatively. However, Multi-Agent System (MAS) is computational systems consisting of a group of agents that interact with each other to solve a problem. The central difference between MRS and MAS is that in the first case, the agent is a robot, and in the second, it is a software. Analyzing the scientific literature, it is possible to notice that few studies address the integration between MAS and MRS. In order to achieve the interdisciplinary integration, the theoretical background of these areas must be considered in this paper, so that the integration can be applied using a case study of decentralized MRS. The objective of this MRS is to track and surround a stationary target. Also, it has been implemented and validated in the robot simulator called Virtual Robot Experimentation Platform (V-REP). In the validation of the proposed MRS, a scenario with three robots and a stationary target were defined. In the tracking task, the robot can detect the target whose position is not known a priori. When the detection occurs, the V-REP informs the target position to the robot because the environment is discretized into a grid of rectangular cells. After that, all the robots are directed to the target, and the surround task is realized. In this task, a mathematical model with direct communication between the robots was used to keep the robots equidistant therefrom and from each other.

Abstract:

The field of multi-robot systems (MRS) has recently been gaining increasing popularity among various research groups, practitioners, and a wide range of industries. Compared to single-robot systems, multi-robot systems are able to perform tasks more efficiently or accomplish objectives that are simply not feasible with a single unit. This makes such multi-robot systems ideal candidates for carrying out distributed tasks in large environments—e.g., performing object retrieval, mapping, or surveillance. However, the traditional approach to multi-robot systems using global planning and centralized operation is, in general, ill-suited for fulfilling tasks in unstructured and dynamic environments. Swarming multi-robot systems have been proposed to deal with such steep challenges, primarily owing to its adaptivity. These qualities are expressed by the system’s ability to learn or change its behavior in response to new and/or evolving operating conditions. Given its importance, in this perspective, we focus on the critical importance of adaptivity for effective multi-robot system swarming and use it as the basis for defining, and potentially quantifying, swarm intelligence. In addition, we highlight the importance of establishing a suite of benchmark tests to measure a swarm’s level of adaptivity. We believe that a focus on achieving increased levels of swarm intelligence through the focus on adaptivity will further be able to elevate the field of swarm robotics.

Abstract:

AbstractMulti-robot systems (MRSs) is a growing field of research that focuses on the collaboration of multiple robots to achieve a common global objective. Managing these systems poses several challenges, including coordination, task allocation, and communication. Among these challenges, a major area of focus is devising an effective communication scheme that ensures robots’ cooperation and adapts to varying conditions during task execution. In this paper, we develop a novel communication management framework tailored for MRSs, specifically addressing dynamic bandwidth distribution in networked teleoperated robotic systems. The algorithm is combined with semi-autonomous formation control based on the Artificial Potential Fields (APF) algorithm, which allows each individual robot to avoid local obstacles autonomously and tries to maintain a desired formation with its neighbors, while the operator is in charge of high-level control only. Common Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation (DBA) algorithms allocate bandwidth to different units based on network conditions and requirements. On the other hand, our proposed DBA scheme dynamically distributes the available bandwidth on communication streams based on factors related to task execution and system performance. In specific, bandwidth is allocated in a way that adapts to changes occurring in the system’s environment and its internal state, including the effect of the autonomous action taken by the path planner on the MRS and the performance of the controller of each individual robot. By addressing the limitations of existing approaches through shaping the communication behavior of the MRS based on performance measures, our proposed algorithm offers a promising solution for improving the performance and efficiency of MRSs. The proposed scheme is tested through simulations on a group of six unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the Robot Operating System (ROS)-Gazebo simulation environment. The obtained results show the scheme’s capability for enhancing the robotic system’s performance while significantly reducing bandwidth consumption. Experimental testing on two mobile robots further demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Abstract:

AbstractSoftware development for robotics applications is still a major challenge that becomes even more complex when considering multi-robot systems (MRSs). Such distributed software has to perform multiple cooperating tasks in a well-coordinated manner to avoid unsatisfactory emerging behavior. This paper provides an approach for programming MRSs at a high abstraction level using the programming language X-Klaim. The computation and communication model of X-Klaim, based on multiple distributed tuple spaces, permits coordinating with the same abstractions and mechanisms both intra- and inter-robot interactions of an MRS. This allows developers to focus on MRS behavior, achieving readable, reusable, and maintainable code. The proposed approach can be used in practice by integrating X-Klaim and the popular robotics framework ROS. We demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of our approach by (i) showing how it scales when implementing two warehouse scenarios allowing us to reuse most of the code when passing from the simpler to the more enriched scenario and (ii) presenting the results of a few experiments showing that our code introduces a slightly greater but acceptable latency and consumes less memory than the traditional ROS implementation based on Python code.

Abstract:

AbstractThis paper contributes with a multi-level, hierarchical control system for a fleet of mobile robots sharing a common 2D motion space. The system consists of three levels, with the top level being a supervisor based on a discrete representation of the Multiple Mobile Robot System (MMRS), in which robot motion processes are seen as sequences of stages. The supervisor controls centrally the changes of their stages by robots, ensuring their collision-, and deadlock-free concurrent movement. The intermediate control level supervises locally the execution of robot motion on individual stages in a manner consistent with the decisions of the top level. The lowest level, robot control, is responsible for motion execution as determined by the local supervisor. We capitalize on some earlier results concerning the supervisory control of MMRS and propose a common framework for three supervisory control models. Then we propose relevant solutions for the local supervisors, in particular, a DES-based robot-motion-mode control and application of the Artificial Potential Field model for ensuring collision-free motion of two robots sharing a space sector. Next we assume simple robot control and subject the system to simulation experiments aimed at comparing the impact of the different solutions on the performance of MMRS.

Abstract:

SummaryIn this paper, a distributed adaptive output feedback consensus tracking control scheme is developed for heterogeneous nonlinear multi‐agent systems (MASs) with actuator failures. Unlike most existing results, the parameters in the considered MAS are unknown, and the system's nonlinear functions are not required to satisfy the Lipschitz condition. A kind of K‐filters with an additional design parameter is designed to suppress the effects of unknown actuator failures. In addition, an event‐triggering mechanism with a switching threshold method is designed to reduce the communication burden. With the proposed control scheme, the tracking error of each subsystem converges exponentially to an adjustable bound. Finally, a nonlinear MAS consisting of multiple single‐link robot manipulators is given to verify its effectiveness.

Abstract:

AbstractReinforcement Learning (RL) as a paradigm aims to develop algorithms that allow to train an agent to optimally achieve a goal with minimal feedback information about the desired behavior, which is not precisely specified. Scalar rewards are returned to the agent as response to its actions endorsing or opposing them. RL algorithms have been successfully applied to robot control design. The extension of the RL paradigm to cope with the design of control systems for Multi-Component Robotic Systems (MCRS) poses new challenges, mainly related to coping with scaling up of complexity due to the exponential state space growth, coordination issues, and the propagation of rewards among agents. In this paper, we identify the main issues which offer opportunities to develop innovative solutions towards fully-scalable cooperative multi-agent systems.
