Reactive Robot-Centric Safety for Autonomous Navigation in Constrained and Dynamic Environments
Viswa Narayanan Sankaranarayanan, Vignesh K. Viswanathan, Akshit Saradagi +2
In this work, we address the problem of ensuring real-time safety in autonomous robot navigation, in spatially constrained dynamic environments, by utilizing only onboard sensors.…
An Adaptive Inspection Planning Approach Towards Routine Monitoring in Uncertain Environments
Vignesh Kottayam Viswanathan, Yifan Bai, Scott Fredriksson +3
In this work, we present a hierarchical framework designed to support robotic inspection under environment uncertainty. By leveraging a known environment model, existing methods pl…
Cloud-Assisted Remote Control for Aerial Robots: From Theory to Proof-of-Concept Implementation
Achilleas Santi Seisa, Viswa Narayanan Sankaranarayanan, Gerasimos Damigos +2
Cloud robotics has emerged as a promising technology for robotics applications due to its advantages of offloading computationally intensive tasks, facilitating data sharing, and e…
SPADE: Towards Scalable Path Planning Architecture on Actionable Multi-Domain 3D Scene Graphs
Vignesh Kottayam Viswanathan, Akash Patel, Mario Alberto Valdes Saucedo +3
In this work, we introduce SPADE, a path planning framework designed for autonomous navigation in dynamic environments using 3D scene graphs. SPADE combines hierarchical path plann…
Collision-free landing of multiple UAVs on moving ground vehicles using time-varying control barrier functions
Viswa Narayanan Sankaranarayanan, Akshit Saradagi, Sumeet Satpute +1
In this article, we present a centralized approach for the control of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for landing on moving unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) using control b…
An Actionable Hierarchical Scene Representation Enhancing Autonomous Inspection Missions in Unknown Environments
Vignesh Kottayam Viswanathan, Mario Alberto Valdes Saucedo, Sumeet Gajanan Satpute +2
In this article, we present the Layered Semantic Graphs (LSG), a novel actionable hierarchical scene graph, fully integrated with a multi-modal mission planner, the FLIE: A First-L…
