The decentralized aggregate motion of many individual robots is known as robotic flocking.
The study of robotic flocking has received considerable attention in the past twenty years. As …

We address a fundamental issue of collective motion of aerial robots: how to ensure that
large flocks of autonomous drones seamlessly navigate in confined spaces. The numerous …

Drone swarms have gained a lot of popularity in recent times because, as a group, drones
can perform highly intelligent tasks. Drone swarms are strongly inspired by the flocking …

The design, construction, and testing of a large distributed system of novel, small, low-cost,
autonomous surface vehicles in the form of self-propelled buoys capable of operating in …

Vision-based drone swarms have recently emerged as a promising alternative to address
the fault-tolerance and flexibility limitations of centralized and communication-based aerial …

Privacy is an important facet of defence against adversaries. In this letter, we introduce the
problem of private flocking. We consider a team of mobile robots flocking in the presence of …

The aim of this paper is to present a novel approach to swarm control of small fixed-wing
UAVs, which combines only two flocking behaviours with a leadership feature. In the …

Animal groups frequently move in a highly organized manner, as represented by flocks of
birds and schools of fish. Despite being an everyday occurrence, we do not fully understand …

This study proposes a distributed algorithm that enables agents' adaptive grouping and
entrapment of multiple targets via automatic decision making, smooth flocking, and well …

In this paper, we present a way to lead a swarm of robots through four parameters called
repulsion, attraction, orientation, and influence, which are inspired by the behavior of …
