HUNT: High-Speed UAV Navigation and Tracking in Unstructured Environments via Instantaneous Relative Frames
Alessandro Saviolo, Jeffrey Mao, Giuseppe Loianno
Search and rescue operations require unmanned aerial vehicles to both traverse unknown unstructured environments at high speed and track targets once detected. Achieving both capab…
Time-Optimized Safe Navigation in Unstructured Environments through Learning Based Depth Completion
Jeffrey Mao, Raghuram Cauligi Srinivas, Steven Nogar +1
Quadrotors hold significant promise for several applications such as agriculture, search and rescue, and infrastructure inspection. Achieving autonomous operation requires systems…
Smooth Games of Configuration in the Linear-Quadratic Setting
Jesse Milzman, Jeffrey Mao, Giuseppe Loianno
Dynamic game theory offers a toolbox for formalizing and solving for both cooperative and non-cooperative strategies in multi-agent scenarios. However, the optimal configuration of…
Trajectory Planning and Control for Differentially Flat Fixed-Wing Aerial Systems
Luca Morando, Sanket A. Salunkhe, Nishanth Bobbili +5
Efficient real-time trajectory planning and control for fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles is challenging due to their non-holonomic nature, complex dynamics, and the additional u…
