Multi-robot Formation Control Based on Behavior

Aiming at the shortcomings of following leader's method based on the feedback control, behavior-based feedback laws have been introduced in multi-robot formation control. Through the experiment based on the AmigoBot platform, it is proved that the method can meet the problem which can not converge fleetly in in the course of obstacles avoidance in the control method based on the feedback.
