A Talent-infused Policy-gradient Approach to Efficient Co-Design of Morphology and Task Allocation Behavior of Multi-Robot Systems
Prajit KrisshnaKumar, Steve Paul, Souma Chowdhury
Interesting and efficient collective behavior observed in multi-robot or swarm systems emerges from the individual behavior of the robots. The functional space of individual robot…
An Open-source Hardware/Software Architecture and Supporting Simulation Environment to Perform Human FPV Flight Demonstrations for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Autonomy
Haosong Xiao, Prajit Krisshnakumar, Jagadeswara P K V Pothuri +3
Small multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), mainly quadcopters, are nowadays ubiquitous in research on aerial autonomy, including serving as scaled-down models for much larg…
Towards Physically Talented Aerial Robots with Tactically Smart Swarm Behavior thereof: An Efficient Co-design Approach
Prajit KrisshnaKumar, Steve Paul, Hemanth Manjunatha +3
The collective performance or capacity of collaborative autonomous systems such as a swarm of robots is jointly influenced by the morphology and the behavior of individual systems…
Fast Decision Support for Air Traffic Management at Urban Air Mobility Vertiports using Graph Learning
Prajit KrisshnaKumar, Jhoel Witter, Steve Paul +3
Urban Air Mobility (UAM) promises a new dimension to decongested, safe, and fast travel in urban and suburban hubs. These UAM aircraft are conceived to operate from small airports…
Graph Learning Based Decision Support for Multi-Aircraft Take-Off and Landing at Urban Air Mobility Vertiports
Prajit KrisshnaKumar, Jhoel Witter, Steve Paul +2
Majority of aircraft under the Urban Air Mobility (UAM) concept are expected to be of the electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) vehicle type, which will operate out of vert…
