The traditional consensus algorithm for bounded space is only applicable to rectangular bouncing boundaries, not suitable for non-rectangular space. In order to extend the previous consensus algorithm to the non- rectangular space, the concept of mirrored velocity is introduced, which can convert the discontinuous real velocity to continuous mirrored velocity, and expand a bounded space into an infinite space. Using the consensus algorithm, it is found that the mirrored velocities of multi-agents asymptotically converge to the same values. Because each mirrored velocity points to a unique velocity in real space, it can be concluded that the real velocities of multi-agents also asymptotically converge. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed consensus algorithm is examined by theoretical proof and numerical simulations. Moreover, an experiment is performed with the algorithm in a real multi-robot system successfully.展开更多
