Swarm Systems for Future Space Exploration

Future robotic in-situ space exploration is a precursor for human colonization of our solar system and search for life on other planets. In contrast to modern Curiosity or ExoMars rovers, future robotic platforms will likely consist of multiple units, forming swarms or teams to provide large spatial sensing aperture, increased efficiency, robustness, and autonomy. This special session is dedicated to the use of multi-agent approaches towards future space exploration, its advantages, challenges, and possible applications.
