“Cooperative Transportation using Multiple Aerial Robots and Decentralized Control” by Koshi Oishi et al., in collaboration with TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION has been accepted by IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation.
In nature, ants and bees are team workers. They realize optimum achievements as a group while each individuals (agent) acts based on simple individual rules. Such “decentralized control,” in which each agent makes individual decisions and acts optimally, are flexible for the environment. Currently, research is ongoing globally to apply such decentralized control to society.
In this study, we developed a cooperative transportation system using multiple aerial robots with a decentralized controller. The proposed controller ensures that the target point can be reached by combining model-based and data-driven controllers, even during robot failure. The results of this research is expected to contribute to employ robots into various environments
