  • Abstract
    Many cooperative tasks in real world environments need the robots to maintain some desired formations when moving. Formation control refers to the problem of controlling the relative position and orientation of robots in a group, while allowing the group to move as a whole. In this paper, a novel leader-follower formation control law for multiple non-holonomic mobile robots based on kinematic models and trajectory tracking techniques is proposed.
