NASA Space Robotics Challenge 2 Qualification Round: An Approach to Autonomous Lunar Rover Operations
Cagri Kilic, Bernardo Martinez R., Christopher A. Tatsch +7
Plans for establishing a long-term human presence on the Moon will require substantial increases in robot autonomy and multi-robot coordination to support establishing a lunar outp…
Slip-Based Autonomous ZUPT through Gaussian Process to Improve Planetary Rover Localization
Cagri Kilic, Nicholas Ohi, Yu Gu +1
The zero-velocity update (ZUPT) algorithm provides valuable state information to maintain the inertial navigation system (INS) reliability when stationary conditions are satisfied.…
Search Planning of a UAV/UGV Team with Localization Uncertainty in a Subterranean Environment
Matteo De Petrillo, Jared Beard, Yu Gu +1
We present a waypoint planning algorithm for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that is teamed with an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) for the task of search and rescue in a subterrane…
Flower Interaction Subsystem for a Precision Pollination Robot
Jared Strader, Jennifer Nguyen, Christopher Tatsch +8
Robotic pollinators not only can aid farmers by providing more cost effective and stable methods for pollinating plants but also benefit crop production in environments not suitabl…
Improved Planetary Rover Inertial Navigation and Wheel Odometry Performance through Periodic Use of Zero-Type Constraints
Cagri Kilic, Jason N. Gross, Nicholas Ohi +5
We present an approach to enhance wheeled planetary rover dead-reckoning localization performance by leveraging the use of zero-type constraint equations in the navigation filter.…
Design of an Autonomous Precision Pollination Robot
Nicholas Ohi, Kyle Lassak, Ryan Watson +17
Precision robotic pollination systems can not only fill the gap of declining natural pollinators, but can also surpass them in efficiency and uniformity, helping to feed the fast-g…
