Mobile robot path planning refers to the design of the safely collision-free path with shortest
distance and least time-consuming from the starting point to the end point by a mobile robot …

Collaborative sensing leverages the cooperation of a collection of sensors to complete a
large-scale sensing task in Internet of Things (IoT). Although some previous studies have …

The small battery capacities of the mobile robot and the un-optimized planning efficiency of
the industrial robot bottlenecked the time efficiency and productivity rate of coverage tasks in …

There are significant advantages using the autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) for
underwater search. Compared with a single AUV, multi-AUV offers greater efficiency and …

Abstract Recently, Multi-Robot Systems (MRS) have attained considerable recognition
because of their efficiency and applicability in different types of real-life applications. This …

For solving the singularity problem arising in the control of manipulators, an efficient way is
to maximize its manipulability. However, it is challenging to optimize manipulability …
