Multi-robot Implicit Control of Herds

Eduardo Sebastián,Eduardo Montijano,Eduardo Sebastián,Eduardo Montijano

This paper presents a novel control strategy to herd a group of non-cooperative evaders by means of a team of robotic herders. In herding problems, the motion of the evaders is typically determined by strong nonlinear reactive dynamics, escaping from the herders. Many applications demand the herding of numerous and/or heterogeneous entities, making the development of flexible control solutions cha...
