Simulation platforms are critical and indispensable tools for application developments of
unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) because the UAVs are generally costly, have certain …

Swarm robotics is an area of research that has attracted several researchers. This field is
part of the collective robotics approach that is inspired by the self-organized behaviors of …

In swarm robotics, decentralized control is often proposed as a more scalable and fault-
tolerant alternative to centralized control. However, centralized behaviors are often faster …

We describe a completely open source system for performing experiments in multi-robot
construction in laboratory settings. The system consists of robots that are capable of …

We propose an approach to multi-robot coverage that combines aspects of centralized and
decentralized control, based on the existing 'mergeable nervous systems' concept. In our …

Building structures is a remarkable collective process but its automation remains an open
challenge. Robot swarms provide a promising solution to this challenge. However, collective …

Swarm robotics is a very attractive field of research, based on applying the paradigms and
methodologies of swarm intelligence to groups of simple homogeneous robots, coordinated …

This paper investigates the problem of multi-UAV uniform sweep coverage, where a
homogeneous swarm of UAVs must collectively and evenly visit every portion of an …

This paper demonstrates a swarm robotics construction system where the intelligence that
coordinates construction has been moved from the robots to an advanced building material …

Swarm robotics is an inspiration from nature and incorporates swarm intelligence to help
collective robotics. This recent technology is usually characterized by a swarm of simple, low …
