Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. A revolutionary new framework that draws on insights from ecology for the design and analysis of long-duration robots.Robots are increasingly leaving the confines of laboratories, warehouses, and manufacturing facilities, venturing into agriculture and other settings where they must operate in uncertain conditions over long timescales. This multidisciplinary book draws on the principles of ecology to show how robots can take full advantage of the environments they inhabit, including as sources of energy.Magnus Egerstedt introduces a revolutionary new design paradigm-robot ecology-that makes it possible to achieve long-duration autonomy while avoiding catastrophic failures. Central to ecology is the idea that the richness of an organism's behavior is a function of the environmental constraints imposed by its habitat. Moving beyond traditional strategies that focus on optimal policies for making robots achieve targeted tasks, Egerstedt explores how to use survivability constraints to produce both effective and provably safe robot behaviors. He blends discussions of ecological principles with the development of control barrier functions as a formal approach to constraint-based control design, and provides an in-depth look at the design of the SlothBot, a slow and energy-efficient robot used for environmental monitoring and conservation.Visionary in scope, Robot Ecology presents a comprehensive and unified methodology for designing robots that can function over long durations in diverse natural environments.

Issued without a dust jacket. -- A thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between artistic expression and the principles of control theory. Authored by experts in both art and engineering, this interdisciplinary volume delves into the ways in which artists and engineers alike grapple with notions of control, feedback, and autonomy in their respective domains. The book begins by examining the foundational concepts of control theory, providing readers with a clear understanding of its principles and applications in engineering and beyond. It then transitions into an exploration of how these concepts intersect with artistic practice, drawing on examples from a wide range of artistic disciplines, including visual art, music, literature, and performance. Through a series of insightful essays and case studies, the authors investigate the ways in which artists harness notions of control and feedback to create meaning, evoke emotion, and challenge audience perceptions. From interactive installations to algorithmic compositions, the book showcases innovative artworks that blur the boundaries between the subjective and the objective, inviting viewers to reconsider their relationship to technology, society, and the world around them. Moreover, "Controls and Art" examines the broader cultural, philosophical, and ethical implications of using control as a creative tool. It prompts readers to reflect on the nature of control in contemporary society, from surveillance and automation to individual agency and free will, and encourages a deeper engagement with the ways in which technology shapes our perceptions and experiences. With its blend of theoretical insights, practical examples, and provocative questions, "Controls and Art" offers a stimulating exploration of the intersections between art, technology, and human creativity. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the evolving relationship between the subjective and the objective, and the role of control in shaping our understanding of the world.

Hardback. Condizione: New. Splines, both interpolatory and smoothing, have a long and rich history that has largely been application driven. This book unifies these constructions in a comprehensive and accessible way, drawing from the latest methods and applications to show how they arise naturally in the theory of linear control systems. Magnus Egerstedt and Clyde Martin are leading innovators in the use of control theoretic splines to bring together many diverse applications within a common framework. In this book, they begin with a series of problems ranging from path planning to statistics to approximation. Using the tools of optimization over vector spaces, Egerstedt and Martin demonstrate how all of these problems are part of the same general mathematical framework, and how they are all, to a certain degree, a consequence of the optimization problem of finding the shortest distance from a point to an affine subspace in a Hilbert space. They cover periodic splines, monotone splines, and splines with inequality constraints, and explain how any finite number of linear constraints can be added.This book reveals how the many natural connections between control theory, numerical analysis, and statistics can be used to generate powerful mathematical and analytical tools. This book is an excellent resource for students and professionals in control theory, robotics, engineering, computer graphics, econometrics, and any area that requires the construction of curves based on sets of raw data.

Hardback. Condizione: New. This accessible book provides an introduction to the analysis and design of dynamic multiagent networks. Such networks are of great interest in a wide range of areas in science and engineering, including: mobile sensor networks, distributed robotics such as formation flying and swarming, quantum networks, networked economics, biological synchronization, and social networks. Focusing on graph theoretic methods for the analysis and synthesis of dynamic multiagent networks, the book presents a powerful new formalism and set of tools for networked systems. The book's three sections look at foundations, multiagent networks, and networks as systems. The authors give an overview of important ideas from graph theory, followed by a detailed account of the agreement protocol and its various extensions, including the behavior of the protocol over undirected, directed, switching, and random networks. They cover topics such as formation control, coverage, distributed estimation, social networks, and games over networks.And they explore intriguing aspects of viewing networks as systems, by making these networks amenable to control-theoretic analysis and automatic synthesis, by monitoring their dynamic evolution, and by examining higher-order interaction models in terms of simplicial complexes and their applications. The book will interest graduate students working in systems and control, as well as in computer science and robotics. It will be a standard reference for researchers seeking a self-contained account of system-theoretic aspects of multiagent networks and their wide-ranging applications. This book has been adopted as a textbook at the following universities: * University of Stuttgart, Germany * Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden * Johannes Kepler University, Austria * Georgia Tech, USA * University of Washington, USA * Ohio University, USA.
