Batch Estimation of a Steady, Uniform, Flow-Field from Ground Velocity and Heading Measurements
A Monte Carlo simulation with randomized flow conditions is used to evaluate the batch estimation methods while varying the measurement noise of the data and the interval of unique heading traversed during the maneuver.
Path Planning for a Cooperative Navigation Aid Vehicle to Assist Multiple Agents Intermittently
This paper considers the problem of planning a path for a single underwater cooperative navigation aid (CNA) vehicle to intermittently aid a set of N agents to minimize average navigation uncertainty.
Design and Flight Demonstration of a Quadrotor for Urban Mapping and Target Tracking Research
This paper describes the hardware design and flight demonstration of a small quadrotor with imaging sensors for urban mapping, hazard avoidance, and target tracking research.
GPU-Accelerated 3D Polygon Visibility Volumes for Synergistic Perception and Navigation
UAV missions often require specific geometric constraints to be satisfied between ground locations and the vehicle location.
Quadrotor Takeoff Trajectory Planning in a One-Dimensional Uncertain Wind-field Aided by Wind-Sensing Infrastructure
A minimum-time optimal control problem is formulated for the quadrotor to take off and reach a desired vertical-plane position in the presence of the predicted wind-field.
Cesium Tiles for High-realism Simulation and Comparing SLAM Results in Corresponding Virtual and Real-world Environments
The impact of this can be significant, potentially allowing expansive virtual testing of robotic systems at specific deployment locations to develop solutions that are tailored to the environment and potentially outperforming solutions meant to work in completely generic environments.
UAV-Borne Mapping Algorithms for Low-Altitude and High-Speed Drone Applications
Results indicate that for UAVs with restrictive computing resources, DSOL is the best option.
Planning Visual Inspection Tours for a 3D Dubins Airplane Model in an Urban Environment
Four sampling algorithms are proposed for sampling vehicle configurations within each visibility volume to define vertices of the underlying DTSPN.
Towards Real-Time Search Planning in Subsea Environments
We address the challenge of computing search paths in real-time for subsea applications where the goal is to locate an unknown number of targets on the seafloor.
