RADRON: Cooperative Localization of Ionizing Radiation Sources by MAVs with Compton Cameras
Petr Stibinger, Tomas Baca, Daniela Doubravova +5
We present a novel approach to localizing radioactive material by cooperating Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAVs). Our approach utilizes a state-of-the-art single-detector Compton camera…
Kilometer-Scale GNSS-Denied UAV Navigation via Heightmap Gradients: A Winning System from the SPRIN-D Challenge
Michal Werner, David Čapek, Tomáš Musil +3
Reliable long-range flight of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in GNSS-denied environments is challenging: integrating odometry leads to drift, loop closures are unavailable in prev…
Towards Fully Onboard State Estimation and Trajectory Tracking for UAVs with Suspended Payloads
Martin Jiroušek, Tomáš Báča, Martin Saska
This paper addresses the problem of tracking the position of a cable-suspended payload carried by an unmanned aerial vehicle, with a focus on real-world deployment and minimal hard…
On rapid parallel tuning of controllers of a swarm of MAVs -- distribution strategies of the updated gains
Dariusz Horla, Wojciech Giernacki, Vít Krátký +3
In this paper, we present a reliable, scalable, time deterministic, model-free procedure to tune swarms of Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAVs) using basic sensory data. Two approaches to…
FlightForge: Advancing UAV Research with Procedural Generation of High-Fidelity Simulation and Integrated Autonomy
David Čapek, Jan Hrnčíř, Tomáš Báča +4
Robotic simulators play a crucial role in the development and testing of autonomous systems, particularly in the realm of Uncrewed Aerial Vehicles (UAV). However, existing simulato…
Towards agile multi-robot systems in the real world: Fast onboard tracking of active blinking markers for relative localization
Tim Felix Lakemann, Daniel Bonilla Licea, Viktor Walter +2
A novel onboard tracking approach enabling vision-based relative localization and communication using Active blinking Marker Tracking (AMT) is introduced in this article. Active bl…
