In this paper we introduce a robotic system ruled by the interaction mechanisms of the mathematical model for synchronization of moving chaotic agents discussed in [1]. Our aim is to provide a proof-of-concept demonstrating the applicability of the theoretical model in a real scenario where factors
Face-to-face interactions are fundamental to the human social system, and, as such, they are a key ingredient in understanding how processes such as opinion dynamics, news and rumor diffusion, and epidemic spreading may occur. In this paper, we leverage the theoretical understanding provided by math
Considering a multi-robot system composed of a ground vehicle and a multi-copter connected each other with a tether, it is crucial for them to know their relative positions in order to carry out any operating task. Localization is usually accomplished by using GPS in outdoor environments. However, s
Being able to estimate the traversability of the area surrounding a mobile robot is a fundamental task in the design of a navigation algorithm. However, the task is often complex, since it requires evaluating distances from obstacles, type and slope of terrain, and dealing with non-obvious discontin…
