I'm proud to have been so heavily involved in the creation of @asu_gsi #ASUCHART GHOST Lab @PolySchoolASU, working with engineers and artists to craft a space that's both scientific testbed and art installation. Awesome research is already in progress! @ASUResearch @lancegharavi
Exploring the solar system and beyond will require robots to assist humans — and go where we cannot. Researchers at GSI's #ASUCHART testbed are helping people, robots and artificial intelligence collaborate more safely and effectively.

Happy Tuesday! NSF (M3X) Award Notice.
Excited to be Co-PI (w/ @spring_berman) on @ASUPsych Kathy Johnson's
"Embodiment of Human Values Profiles in the Control of Autonomous Vehicles"
We'll be joining #psychology & #control to make vehicles w/ MORALLY graceful failure modes :-)
New paper, "Decentralized Control of Multi-Agent Systems using Local Density Feedback":
Agents evolve according to a discrete-time Markov process, decentralized density-dependent transition kernel, no agent state transitions at equilibrium

Fun moderating the discussion on Robot Swarms in the Real World with panelists @NoraRobots, @spring_berman, Dan Goldman, and Rafael de la Guardia. Well done to @SiddharthMayya, Gennaro Notomista, @RoderichGross and @vijay_r_kumar for the great workshop! sites.google.com/view/realwo…
Also, new paper on an MPC method for collision-free, deadlock-free navigation by multiple nonholonomic robots:

New paper on stabilizing discrete-time deterministic nonlinear control systems to target invariant measures (using time-invariant stochastic feedback laws): ieeexplore.ieee.org/document…
New paper on swarm shepherding: Mean-field model and control approach for herding a swarm (via repulsive interactions) to a target state distribution using a “leader” agent: ieeexplore.ieee.org/document…
Do want to implement a gradient-based feedback control law that was developed for a holonomic robot model, but your robot is nonholonomic? See our new RA-L paper: ieeexplore.ieee.org/document…
Our new paper on safe robot navigation in unknown GPS-denied environments with strictly convex obstacles:

Our new modelling tool is now out in @PLOSONE - make math models of #collectivebehaviour w/out writing equations or installing software. We are also looking for developers to help maintain. Please RT to help us find users+devs w/ @joefresna journals.plos.org/plosone/ar…
Our paper "Mean-field models in swarm robotics: A survey" is out now: doi.org/10.1088/1748-3190/ab… via @IOPscience Authors: Karthik Elamvazhuthi & Spring Berman; in Bioinspiration & Biomimetics, special issue on Swarming Systems, ed. @drdavidhu

This issue features insights from chimney swifts, robots, and plant tendrils @spring_berman @MerozLab If you have an article you can send it to my attention at @BioinspBiomim
Board member @drdavidhu is Guest Editing a special issue on swarming systms for us. We've published 2 papers to date, with plenty more to come. ow.ly/4hhM50utNTg
My lab's Pheeno robots (small red robots with black-and-white tags) made it to @CBSNews!
Arizona State Researchers are developing a new generation of machines that can learn new skills -- these teachable robots could change how we work and live. @ChrisMartinezTV @CBSNews @ASUEngineering kpax.com/news/national-news/…
