Macroscopic Robots as Microscopic Liquid Molecules - Brownian Motion and Quantum Dynamics

A maneuvering system by few numbers of “macroscopic” robots with neither apparatuses for mutual communication nor external sensors is given. Boltzmann distribution over energy of the robots allows us to calculate feedforward control input. Under the proposed feedforward control with PD compensation, system of few such robots is shown to make an object track a required path in a closed plane region. We show simulation studies on a system of four(N
₀
= 4) robots. We also study planned movements by few macroscopic robots under quantum fluctuation.
