Configuration-Induced Passive Self-Rotation for Perception-Enhanced Autonomous Flight
Xurui Liu, Miao Wang, Tianyu He +2
Autonomous flight in confined and cluttered environments is fundamentally limited by the restricted field of view (FoV) of onboard sensors. Passive self-rotation expands sensing co…
Disturbance-Aware Flight for Aerial Robots in Narrow Space
Lei Qiang, Tianyu He, Chenyang Sun +3
Autonomous flight of aerial robots in narrow space remains challenging due to strong aerodynamic disturbances and limited flying space. Existing approaches mainly address aerodynam…
A Self-Rotating Tri-Rotor UAV for Field of View Expansion and Autonomous Flight
Xiaobin Zhou, Zihao Zheng, Aoxu Jin +2
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) perception relies on onboard sensors like cameras and LiDAR, which are limited by the narrow field of view (FoV). We present Self-Perception INertia…
Rotor-Failure-Aware Quadrotors Flight in Unknown Environments
Xiaobin Zhou, Miao Wang, Chengao Li +5
Rotor failures in quadrotors may result in high-speed rotation and vibration due to rotor imbalance, which introduces significant challenges for autonomous flight in unknown enviro…
Safe and Agile Transportation of Cable-Suspended Payload via Multiple Aerial Robots
Yongchao Wang, Junjie Wang, Xiaobin Zhou +3
Transporting a heavy payload using multiple aerial robots (MARs) is an efficient manner to extend the load capacity of a single aerial robot. However, existing schemes for the mult…
