Abstract
This work discusses an agent-based control system utilized for target tracking by clusters of basic mobile robotic sensor agents coupled to form complex reconfigurable mobile structures. Coupling and de-coupling mobile agents are controlled using an adaptive algorithm, which does not initially know the physical constraints tying the agents together, but is able to navigate the structure as if it were a single entity.
