Plasticity in Collective Decision-Making for Robots: Creating Global Reference Frames, Detecting Dynamic Environments, and Preventing Lock-ins

Mohammad Divband Soorati, Maximilian Krome, Marco Mora-Mendoza, Javad Ghofrani, Heiko Hamann

IROS 2019poster

Swarm robots operate as autonomous agents and a swarm as a whole gets autonomous by its capability of collective decision-making. Despite intensive research on models of collective decision-making, the implementation in multi-robot systems is still challenging. Here, we advance the state of the art…

Robust and Adaptive Robot Self-Assembly Based on Vascular Morphogenesis

Mohammad Divband Soorati, Javad Ghofrani, Payam Zahadat, Heiko Hamann

IROS 2018poster

Self-assembly is the aggregation of simple parts into complex patterns as frequently observed in nature. Following this inspiration, creating programmable systems of self-assembly that achieve similar complexity and robustness with robots is challenging. As a role model we pick the growth of natural…
