F Formation

Formation control research focuses on coordinating multiple agents, such as drones or underwater vehicles, into desired geometric patterns while addressing communication limitations and environmental constraints. Current research emphasizes efficient algorithms for large-scale formations, often employing sparse graph representations and distributed control strategies like backstepping or neurodynamic approaches to optimize energy consumption and robustness. This work is crucial for advancing applications like multi-agent delivery systems and autonomous swarm robotics, particularly by improving scalability and reliability in complex environments.
