Real-time Whole-Body Motion Planning for Mobile Manipulators Carrying Arbitrarily Shaped Payloads via Kinematically-Coupled SVSDF
Yisheng Li, Longji Yin, Tingrui Zhang +6
Mobile manipulators are increasingly tasked with transporting large, non-convex payloads through cluttered environments, yet existing planners either oversimplify the payload geome…
A Survey on LiDAR-based Autonomous Aerial Vehicles
Yunfan Ren, Yixi Cai, Haotian Li +6
This survey offers a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in LiDAR-based autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), covering their design, perception, planning, and contr…
Swashplateless-elevon Actuation for a Dual-rotor Tail-sitter VTOL UAV
Nan Chen, Fanze Kong, Haotian Li +6
In this paper, we propose a novel swashplateless-elevon actuation (SEA) for dual-rotor tail-sitter vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). In contrast…
Snapp: An Agile Robotic Fish with 3-D Maneuverability for Open Water Swim
Timothy J. K. Ng, Nan Chen, Fu Zhang
Fish exhibit impressive locomotive performance and agility in complex underwater environments, using their undulating tails and pectoral fins for propulsion and maneuverability. Re…
Trajectory Generation and Tracking Control for Aggressive Tail-Sitter Flights
Guozheng Lu, Yixi Cai, Nan Chen +3
We address the theoretical and practical problems related to the trajectory generation and tracking control of tail-sitter UAVs. Theoretically, we focus on the differential flatnes…
MARSIM: A light-weight point-realistic simulator for LiDAR-based UAVs
Fanze Kong, Xiyuan Liu, Benxu Tang +6
The emergence of low-cost, small form factor and light-weight solid-state LiDAR sensors have brought new opportunities for autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) by advancing n…
Swarm-LIO: Decentralized Swarm LiDAR-inertial Odometry
Fangcheng Zhu, Yunfan Ren, Fanze Kong +5
Accurate self and relative state estimation are the critical preconditions for completing swarm tasks, e.g., collaborative autonomous exploration, target tracking, search and rescu…
