Towards Robust Optimization-Based Autonomous Dynamic Soaring with a Fixed-Wing UAV
Marvin Harms, Jaeyoung Lim, David Rohr +3
Dynamic soaring is a flying technique to exploit the energy available in wind shear layers, enabling potentially unlimited flight without the need for internal energy sources. We p…
Autonomous Active Mapping in Steep Alpine Environments with Fixed-wing Aerial Vehicles
Jaeyoung Lim, Florian Achermann, Nicholas Lawrance +1
Monitoring large scale environments is a crucial task for managing remote alpine environments, especially for hazardous events such as avalanches. One key information for avalanche…
Safe Low-Altitude Navigation in Steep Terrain with Fixed-Wing Aerial Vehicles
Jaeyoung Lim, Florian Achermann, Rik Girod +2
Fixed-wing aerial vehicles provide an efficient way to navigate long distances or cover large areas for environmental monitoring applications. By design, they also require large op…
WindSeer: Real-time volumetric wind prediction over complex terrain aboard a small UAV
Florian Achermann, Thomas Stastny, Bogdan Danciu +4
Real-time high-resolution wind predictions are beneficial for various applications including safe manned and unmanned aviation. Current weather models require too much compute and…
Power-based Safety Layer for Aerial Vehicles in Physical Interaction using Lyapunov Exponents
Eugenio Cuniato, Nicholas Lawrance, Marco Tognon +1
