报告摘要：There is a perceivable trend for robots to serve as networked mobile sensing platforms that are able to collect data in aquatic environment in unprecedented ways. The need for undisturbed operation of search and monitoring posts higher goals for sustainable autonomy. This talk reviews recent developments in autonomous collective foraging in aquatic environment that explicitly integrates insights from biology with models and provable strategies from control theory and robotics. One of the interesting insights is that sensing is used to enable implicit communications among agents, which is able to achieve coordinated behaviors while incorporating individual differences. The algorithms are rigorously analyzed and modified for mobile robots. Experimental effort with promising results demonstrate that bio-inspired autonomy might be preferred in aquatic environment that features severe limitation in communication.
