Journal ArticleDOI
Stable pushing: mechanics, controllability, and planning
Kevin M. Lynch,Matthew T. Mason +1 more
TL;DR: A planner for finding stable pushing paths among obstacles is described, and the planner is demon strated on several manipulation tasks.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Stability and Convergence Properties of Dynamic Average Consensus Estimators
TL;DR: It is discovered that the more complex proportional-integral algorithm has performance benefits over the simpler proportional algorithm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanics and control of swimming: a review
J.E. Colgate,Kevin M. Lynch +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review clues to artificial swimmer design taken from fish physiology and formalize and review the control problems that must be solved by a robot fish, and exploit fish locomotion principles to address the truly difficult control challenges of station keeping under large perturbations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brief paper: Decentralized estimation and control of graph connectivity for mobile sensor networks
Peng Yang,Randy A. Freeman,Geoffrey J. Gordon,Kevin M. Lynch,Siddhartha S. Srinivasa,Rahul Sukthankar +5 more
TL;DR: This paper describes a decentralized estimation procedure that allows each agent to track the algebraic connectivity of a time-varying graph and proposes a decentralized gradient controller for eachAgent to maintain global connectivity during motion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multi-Agent Coordination by Decentralized Estimation and Control
TL;DR: A framework for the design of collective behaviors for groups of identical mobile agents based on decentralized simultaneous estimation and control is described, which derives conditions which guarantee that the formation statistics are driven to desired values, even in the presence of a changing network topology.
