Cooperative collision avoidance in multirobot systems using fuzzy rules and velocity obstacles by Tang, Wenbing, Zhou, Yuan, Zhang, Tianwei, Liu, Yang, Liu, Jing, Ding, Zuohua

“…In detail, at any time instant, a robot checks the robots that it may collide with and retrieves the most dangerous robot in each sector based on the predicted collision time; then, the robot generates its velocity in real-time via fuzzy inference and VO-based fine-tuning. At each time instant, a robot only needs to retrieve its neighbors' current positions and velocities, so the method is fully distributed. …”
