Cooperative distributed pick and place algorithm for mobile manipulators with camera feedback

The main goal of this research is to perform a pick and place task done by several mobile robots equipped with a robotic arm by using a distributed algorithm and a formation control law for keeping the shape. Nowadays, the industry sometimes needs the cooperation of different robots to achieve what...
