Multi-robot persistent surveillance with connectivity constraints
Jürgen Scherer, Bernhard Rinner
Mobile robots, especially unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), are of increasing interest for surveillance and disaster response scenarios. We consider the problem of multi-robot persi…
Persistent Multi-UAV Surveillance with Data Latency Constraints
Jürgen Scherer, Bernhard Rinner
We discuss surveillance with multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) that minimize idleness (the time between consecutive visits of sensing locations) and constrain latency (the ti…
Multi-Robot Patrolling with Sensing Idleness and Data Delay Objectives
Jürgen Scherer, Bernhard Rinner
Multi-robot patrolling represents a fundamental problem for many monitoring and surveillance applications and has gained significant interest in recent years. In patrolling, mobile…
Concealing the identity of faces in oblique images with adaptive hopping Gaussian mixtures
Omair Sarwar, Bernhard Rinner, Andrea Cavallaro
Cameras mounted on Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAVs) are increasingly used for recreational photography. However, aerial photographs of public places often contain faces of bystanders t…
Trustworthy and Privacy-Aware Sensing for Internet of Things
Ihtesham Haider, Bernhard Rinner
The Internet of Things (IoT) is considered as the key enabling technology for smart services. Security and privacy are particularly open challenges for IoT applications due to the…
