Line-up formation control of intelligent traffic cones

This paper presents the line-up formation control of multi-intelligent traffic cones (ITCs). ITCs are designed to be a mobile robot that can be controlled to move to the desired location by an operator. The operator commands ITCs to move to line up through an application software that shows a map and GUI on a personal smart phone. The smart phone is connected to a server through WiFi communication so that the operator logs in the server to control the movements of ITCs. The movement of ITCs is controlled and displayed on the map since ITCs have GPS sensors so that real time application is feasible.
