This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Distributed Coordination Theory for Robot Teamsdevelops control algorithms to coordinate the motion of autonomous teams of robots in order to achieve some desired collective goal. It provides novel solutions to foundational coordination problems, including distributed algorithms to make quadrotor helicopters rendezvous and to make ground vehicles move in formation along circles or straight lines. The majority of the algorithms presented in this book can be implemented using on-board cameras.The book begins with an introduction to coordination problems, such as rendezvous of flying robots, and modelling. It then provides a solid theoretical background in basic stability, graph theory and control primitives. The book discusses the algorithmic solutions for numerous distributed control problems, focusing primarily on flying robotics and kinematic unicycles. Finally, the book looks to the future, and suggests areas discussed which could be pursued in further research.This book will provide practitioners, researchers and students in the field of control and robotics new insights in distributed multi-agent systems. 164 pp. Englisch.…

About the Author
Ashton Roza received the Bachelor of Applied Science (BASc) degree in Electrical Engineering in 2010 from the University of Waterloo, Canada. He received the Master of Applied Science (MASc) degree in 2012 and the PhD degree in 2019, both from the Edward S. Rogers Sr. Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Toronto, Canada. His research focuses on the application of nonlinear control and geometric methods to coordination in networks of autonomous robots. He has published papers in the IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control and IEEE Transactions on Control of Networked Systems.
Manfredi Maggiore was born in Genoa, Italy. He received the "Laurea" degree in Electronic Engineering in 1996 from the University of Genoa and the PhD degree in Electrical Engineering from the Ohio State University, USA, in 2000. Since 2000 he has been with the Edward S. Rogers Sr. Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Toronto, Canada, where he is currently Professor. He has been a visiting Professor at the University of Bologna (2007-2008), and the Laboratoire des Signaux et Systèmes, Ecole CentraleSupélec (2015-2016, 2017, 2018). His research focuses on mathematical nonlinear control, and relies on methods from dynamical systems theory and differential geometry. In 2018, he won the Faculty Teaching Award at the University of Toronto. Dr. Maggiore has co-authored two books with Wiley and Springer. He is Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology and Control Engineering Practice.
Luca Scardovi received the Laurea degree and Ph.D. degree in Electronic and Computer Engineering from the University of Genoa, Italy, in 2001 and 2005 respectively. He held research associate positions at the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Liège, Belgium (2005-2007) and at the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Princeton University (2007-2009). From 2009 to 2011 he was an Assistant Professor at the Technische Universität München, Munich, Germany. Since 2011 he has been with the Edward S. Rogers Sr. Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Toronto, Canada, where he is currently Associate Professor. In 2018 he was a Visiting Scientist at the Biocore Institute at INRIA Sophia Antipolis, France, and a Visiting Professor at the University of Cagliari, Italy. His research interests focus on dynamical systems with special emphasis in the analysis and control of emergent dynamics in networked dynamical systems. He is an Associate Editor for the journals Systems & Control Letters and IEEE Control Systems Letters.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).

We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to BuchWeltWeit Ludwig Meier e.K., Bergisch Gladbach, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
