CARELLI, R.; DE LA CRUZ, C.  and  ROBERTI, F.. Centralized formation control of non-holonomic mobile robots. Lat. Am. appl. res. [online]. 2006, vol.36, n.2, pp.63-69. ISSN 0327-0793.

This work presents a control algorithm for a group of non-holonomic mobile robots that must attain coordinately a specific formation, which can be fixed or moving in the work space. The control error is defined in terms of location, size and shape of the constellation of points placed by the robots and the constellation of objective points. The stability analysis of the proposed control system is included along with the results from simulation and laboratory experiencies which validate the good performance of this robot formation control system.

Keywords : Multi-Agent Robotic System; Robot Formations; Centralized Formation Control; Non-Holonomic Mobile Robots; Non-Linear Systems.
