Software for Future Robotics (SEFOR)Advances and challenges in massively distributed robotics
TU Darmstadt, IEEE
Abstract:
We consider the problem of controlling large ensembles of robots. First, we study ensembles of loosely coupled robots (i.e. robot swarms) that gather in a common place, navigate confined spaces, or transport objects. Then, we study ensembles of robots that can assemble and act as a common physical entity enabling novel technologies in modular robotics and robotic fabrics. Finally, we discuss ensembles of robots that learn, and interact with humans, in search and rescue and on-demand parcel delivery scenarios.
Bio:
Roderich Groß recently joined the Department of Computer Science at Technical University of Darmstadt where he leads the new "Fachgebiet" Resilient Cyber-physical Systems. Since 2010 (2014), he has been an Assistant (Associate) Professor in the Department of Automatic Control and Systems Engineering, The University of Sheffield where he leads the Natural Robotics Lab. He has made algorithmic and other contributions to swarm robotics and reconfigurable robots, and invented a machine learning method called Turing Learning.
