In a world with rapidly growing levels of automation, robotics is playing an increasingly
significant role in every aspect of human endeavour. In particular, many types of mobile …

Climate change has introduced significant challenges that can affect multiple sectors,
including the agricultural one. In particular, according to the Food and Agriculture …

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) have rapidly
evolved, becoming integral to various applications such as environmental monitoring …

Recent advances in technology are delivering robots of reduced size and cost. A natural
outgrowth of these advances are systems comprised of large numbers of robots that …

The introduction of multiple unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems into agriculture causes
an increase in work efficiency and a decrease in operator fatigue. However, systems that are …

Robustness and flexibility constitute the main advantages of multiple-robot systems with
respect to single-robot ones as per the recent literature. The use of multiple unmanned …

In this paper, a novel decentralized control strategy for bilaterally teleoperating
heterogeneous groups of mobile robots from different domains (aerial, ground, marine, and …

We propose a novel semiautonomous haptic teleoperation control architecture for multiple
unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), consisting of three control layers: 1) UAV control layer …

We propose a novel unified passivity-based adaptive backstepping control framework for
“mixed” quadrotor-type unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), which consists of the translation …

In this paper we present the first study of human-swarm interaction comparing two
fundamental types of interaction, coined intermittent and environmental. These types are …
