Abstract

For the examples presented in previous chapters, the relative information between agents, such as relative distances/positions, relative path variables, is obtained through explicit information flow, including sensor measurements and direct communication. While such explicit information flow exists in many cooperative control applications, there are situations where the information flow is implicit. For example, suppose that several people move a table and only one person knows where to go.
