TL;DR: In this paper, the longitudinal control problem for a platoon of vehicles with unknown nonlinear dynamics under both the predecessor-following and the bidirectional control architectures is studied, where each vehicle utilizes feedback from its relative position with respect to its preceding and following vehicles as well as its own velocity, which can all be easily acquired by onboard sensors.

TL;DR: This paper presents a novel control protocol for distance and orientation formation control of rigid bodies, whose communication graph is a static and undirected tree, in the special Euclidean group SE(3).

TL;DR: This paper considers a decentralized leader-follower architecture where the leading robot tries to achieve the desired tracking behavior via an impedance control law, and the follower estimates the leader's desired motion via a novel prescribed performance estimation law.

TL;DR: In this article, the longitudinal control problem for a platoon of vehicles with unknown nonlinear dynamics under both the predecessor-following and the bidirectional control architectures is studied, where each vehicle utilizes feedback from its relative position with respect to its preceding and following vehicles as well as its own velocity, which can be easily obtained by onboard sensors.

TL;DR: In this article, two control methodologies for the cooperative manipulation of an object by $N$ robotic agents are presented, one of which employs quaternion feedback for the object orientation to avoid potential representation singularities.
