Learn about a novel solution for cooperative, optimal multi-vehicle rendezvous problems in this 10-minute conference talk from JuliaCon 2024. Explore a pioneering approach that combines gain-free, time-dependent optimal control with consensus protocols for coordinating quadrotor and ground vehicle rendezvous. Discover how the dual-stage methodology streamlines vehicle convergence through initial trajectory generation and real-time refinement using shared time-to-go information. Follow along with numerical simulations powered by JuliaSimControl and the AerialVehicles model library that demonstrate the method's effectiveness, convergence capabilities, and adaptability across different communication topologies. Gain insights into practical applications spanning autonomous transport, logistics, emergency response, and military operations, while understanding how this innovative solution enhances the efficiency and safety of autonomous vehicle operations in dynamic environments.
