Abstract
The purpose of this article is to provide a tutorial overview of information consensus in multivehicle cooperative control. Theoretical results regarding consensus-seeking under both time invariant and dynamically changing communication topologies are summarized. Several specific applications of consensus algorithms to multivehicle coordination are described
