Real-time Geo-localization Using Satellite Imagery and Topography for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
Shuxiao Chen, Xiangyu Wu, Mark W. Mueller +1
The capabilities of autonomous flight with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have significantly increased in recent times. However, basic problems such as fast and robust geo-localiz…
Model-free online motion adaptation for energy efficient flights of multicopters
Xiangyu Wu, Jun Zeng, Andrea Tagliabue +1
Limited flight distance and time is a common problem for multicopters. We propose a method for finding the optimal speed and sideslip angle of a multicopter flying a given path to…
Legged Robot State Estimation in Slippery Environments Using Invariant Extended Kalman Filter with Velocity Update
Sangli Teng, Mark Wilfried Mueller, Koushil Sreenath
This paper proposes a state estimator for legged robots operating in slippery environments. An Invariant Extended Kalman Filter (InEKF) is implemented to fuse inertial and velocity…
Autonomous Flight through Cluttered Outdoor Environments Using a Memoryless Planner
Junseok Lee, Xiangyu Wu, Seung Jae Lee +1
This paper introduces a collision avoidance system for navigating a multicopter in cluttered outdoor environments based on the recent memory-less motion planner, rectangular pyrami…
Design and Control of a Midair-Reconfigurable Quadcopter using Unactuated Hinges
Nathan Bucki, Jerry Tang, Mark W. Mueller
A novel quadcopter capable of changing shape mid-flight is presented, allowing for operation in four configurations with the capability of sustained hover in three. This is accompl…
