Robotic manipulation aims at combining the versatility and flexibility of mobile robot
platforms with manipulation capabilities of robot manipulators. This survey paper …

The framework of this paper is to present a systematic review of the state-of-the-art
development of cooperative dual-arm manipulators in the industrial and household fields. A …

Object transportation could be a challenging problem for a single robot due to the oversize
and/or overweight issues. A multi-robot system can take the advantage of increased driving …

This paper presents a novel control protocol for distance and orientation formation control of
rigid bodies, whose sensing graph is a static and undirected tree, in the special Euclidean …

This paper presents a novel control and planning algorithm for cooperative slung-load
transportation using multiple quadrotors. Each aerial robot modeled as a quadrotor is …

One potential application of multirobot systems is collective transport, a task in which
multiple robots collaboratively move a payload that is too large or heavy for a single robot. In …

This article investigates a fully distributed cooperation scheme for networked mobile
manipulators. To achieve cooperative task allocation in a distributed way, an adaptation …

This article proposes a distributed control method for networked manipulators to
cooperatively transport an unmodeled object without force measurement. First, we design an …

This article considers the asymptotic tracking control problem for a class of nonlinear
systems subject to predefined constraints for the system response, such as maximum …

In this letter, we design a decentralized control protocol for the collision avoidance of a multi-
agent system, which is composed of 3-D ellipsoidal agents that obey second-order uncertain …
