A dϕ-strategy, where d and ϕ are Euclidean measures with respect to the lead robot, is developed to ensure virtual connectivity of the carrier robots to the lead robot. ...
Moreover, a combination of target configuration, dϕ-strategy, orientation consensus, and avoidance of end-effector of robots results in a second, locally rigid formation (not infinitesimally rigid). ...
We note that only the lead robot has the global information of the workspace, which includes the target configuration; thus, the carrier robots are guided by the lead robot. ...
