Abstract
Collaboration between robots provides solutions for transporting more complex and heavier loads. In this work, inspired by the ant colony foraging and transport, we put forward two collaborative models, Coupled-Carriers and Navigator-Carrier, for aerial cooperative transport. To achieve this, a linear quadratic regulator (LQR) is applied to optimize the performance. The results show the task of dual-drone transport of a bar load is successfully accomplished.
