Defending a Perimeter from a Ground Intruder Using an Aerial Defender: Theory and Practice
Elijah S. Lee, Daigo Shishika, Giuseppe Loianno +1
The perimeter defense game has received interest in recent years as a variant of the pursuit-evasion game. A number of previous works have solved this game to obtain the optimal st…
Aggressive Visual Perching with Quadrotors on Inclined Surfaces
Jeffrey Mao, Guanrui Li, Stephen Nogar +2
Autonomous Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAVs) have the potential to be employed for surveillance and monitoring tasks. By perching and staring on one or multiple locations aerial robots…
VIPose: Real-time Visual-Inertial 6D Object Pose Tracking
Rundong Ge, Giuseppe Loianno
Estimating the 6D pose of objects is beneficial for robotics tasks such as transportation, autonomous navigation, manipulation as well as in scenarios beyond robotics like virtual…
PCMPC: Perception-Constrained Model Predictive Control for Quadrotors with Suspended Loads using a Single Camera and IMU
Guanrui Li, Alex Tunchez, Giuseppe Loianno
In this paper, we address the Perception--Constrained Model Predictive Control (PCMPC) and state estimation problems for quadrotors with cable suspended payloads using a single cam…
Design and Deployment of an Autonomous Unmanned Ground Vehicle for Urban Firefighting Scenarios
Kshitij Jindal, Anthony Wang, Dinesh Thakur +7
Autonomous mobile robots have the potential to solve missions that are either too complex or dangerous to be accomplished by humans. In this paper, we address the design and autono…
Millimeter-Wave UAV Coverage in Urban Environments
Seongjoon Kang, Marco Mezzavilla, Angel Lozano +5
With growing interest in mmWave connectivity for UAVs, a basic question is whether networks intended for terrestrial users can provide sufficient aerial coverage as well. To assess…
Lightweight UAV-based Measurement System for Air-to-Ground Channels at 28 GHz
Vasilii Semkin, Seongjoon Kang, Jaakko Haarla +7
Wireless communication at millimeter wave frequencies has attracted considerable attention for the delivery of high-bit-rate connectivity to unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Howeve…
Comparative Analysis of Agent-Oriented Task Assignment and Path Planning Algorithms Applied to Drone Swarms
Rohith Gandhi Ganesan, Samantha Kappagoda, Giuseppe Loianno +1
Autonomous drone swarms are a burgeoning technology with significant applications in the field of mapping, inspection, transportation and monitoring. To complete a task, each drone…
