A Hybrid Multirobot Control Architecture for Object Transport
TL;DR: This novel use of a hybrid controller for the mobile multirobot cluster prevents large environmental forces on the object and abstraction of the cluster as an actuator enhances flexibility, making design of the object controller independent of the number, location, and maneuverability of individual robots.

TL;DR: The Organism/Organics Exposure to Orbital Stresses (O/OREOS) nanosatellite mission successfully launched on November 19, 2010 from Kodiak, AK aboard a Minotaur IV launch vehicle as discussed by the authors.
Multiple UAV Adaptive Navigation for Three-Dimensional Scalar Fields
TL;DR: In this article, a multilayer adaptive navigation (AN) control architecture for 3D scalar fields is presented, which can reduce required time and energy to explore scalar characteristics of unknown and dynamic regions of interest.
