Abstract
By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – Investigators publish new report on Ro botics. According to news reporting out of Evanston, Illinois, by NewsRx editors , research stated, “Operating multi-robot teams of diverse agents is an ongoing challenge for emergency deployments, where inter-agent connectivity is rare and environments are unpredictable. Heterogeneous systems must be capable of adaptin g autonomously while maintaining safety.” Funders for this research include MURI, National Science Foundation (NSF), Offic e of Naval Research. Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Northwestern Univer sity, “Here, we develop an algorithm for heterogeneous decentralized multi-robot systems to independently manage safety constraints with provable guarantees for safety and communication in a coverage task. We demonstrate this algorithm in s ettings where up to 100 agents navigate a simulated cluttered environment with s afety constraints that change as agents observe hazards.”
