摘要
As research progresses in distributed robotic systems, more and more aspects of multirobot systems are being explored. This Special Issue on Advances in Multirobot Systems provides a broad sampling of the research that is currently ongoing in the field of distributed mobile robot systems. To help categorize this research, we have identified seven primary research topics within multirobot systems: biological inspirations, communication, architectures, localization/mapping/exploration, object transport and manipulation, motion coordination, and reconfigurable robots. This editorial examines these research areas and discusses the Special Issue papers in this context. We conclude by identifying several additional open research issues in distributed mobile robotic systems.
