多机器人在不同地形上推箱，靠角色分工实现稳定协作。

Collaborative transport of objects via pushing by multiple robots has many applications, ranging from construction and warehouse environments to post disaster debris clean-up. Achieving collaborative transport over surfaces with different inclination and friction properties however poses unique challenges. To address these challenges, this paper presents an asynchronous decentralized task and motion planning approach for transporting rectangular boxes of varying mass over flat, uphill and downhill terrain. Such a decentralized approach alleviates communication, synchronization and consensus needs and mitigates single point of failure issues. Our approach, called R2P2 or Roles with Rules and Proportional-control Primitive, assigns roles (e.g., push, support and prevent) to robots based on rules cognizant of the mode of manipulation needed (box rotation vs translation); this is followed by either rule-based control or proportional control of robot velocity based on the roles. Each robot is assumed to observe the location and heading of self and the box in executing the role and controls. R2P2 is evaluated with a six-robot team deployed in a simulator built using NVIDIA IsaacSim -- demonstrating generalizability across different surface friction/inclination and box mass scenarios, and better success rate compared to a standard virtual-leader-follower method. R2P2 is also successfully validated with a physical experiment, where it is executed onboard four turtlebots tasked with moving a 1.2 kg box.
