Robots use AI planner and controller for complex motion tasks

Researchers have developed a new hierarchical framework for multi-robot motion planning that combines a Graph Attention Planner (GATP) with a decentralized Nonlinear Model Predictive Controller (NMPC). This approach addresses real-world challenges like dynamic feasibility and communication constraints, which are often overlooked by simpler Graph Neural Network methods. The framework was successfully evaluated in both simulations and real-world quadrotor experiments, demonstrating robustness to communication delays and feasibility with decentralized on-board inference.
