An Autonomous Drone Swarm for Detecting and Tracking Anomalies among Dense Vegetation
Rakesh John Amala Arokia Nathan, Sigrid Strand, Daniel Mehrwald +2
Swarms of drones offer an increased sensing aperture, and having them mimic behaviors of natural swarms enhances sampling by adapting the aperture to local conditions. We demonstra…

Reciprocal Visibility
Rakesh John Amala Arokia Nathan, Sigrid Strand, Dmitriy Shutin +1
We propose a guidance strategy to optimize real-time synthetic aperture sampling for occlusion removal with drones by pre-scanned point-cloud data. Depth information can be used to…
