Layered multi-agent coordination
Abstract:
A method includes receiving first and second coordinated paths for first and second robotic devices. The first coordinated path comprises a dependency edge indicating a first position on the first coordinated path and a second position on the second coordinated path. The method also includes determining a first traversable portion extending to a first stopping position before or at the first position on the first coordinated path. The method also includes providing a first instruction to the first robotic device to traverse the first traversable portion; subsequently determining that the second robotic device has passed the second position on the second coordinated path; determining a second traversable portion of the first coordinated path extending to a second stopping position beyond the first position on the first coordinated path; and providing a second instruction to the first robotic device to traverse the second traversable portion.
