  • Abstract
    In this paper, we discuss the parallelism between redundant manipulator control and the control of platoon-level functions for systems of autonomous vehicles. We cast the platoon formation problem in an analogous manner to traditional redundancy resolution, and discuss techniques for control of the platoon
