This letter considers distributed flocking control on the Special Euclidean group for networked rigid bodies. The method captures the three flocking rules proposed by Reynolds: cohesion; alignment; and separation. The proposed controller is based only on relative pose (position and attitude) informa
This paper presents a coverage control algorithm for teams of quadcopters with downward facing visual sensors that prevents the appearance of coverage holes in-between the monitored areas while maximizing the coverage quality as much as possible. We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for pre…
This paper presents a coverage control strategy for teams of quadcopters that ensures that no area is left unsurveyed in between the fields of view of the visual sensors mounted on the quadcopters. We present a locational cost that quantifies the team's coverage performance according to the sensors'…
