3-D relative positioning sensor for indoor flying robots
Swarms of indoor flying robots are promising for many applications, including searching tasks in collapsing buildings, or mobile surveillance and monitoring tasks in complex man-made structures. For tasks that employ several flying robots, spatial-coordination between robots is essential for achieving collective operation. However, there is a lack of on-board sensors capable of sensing the high...
متن کاملToward indoor flying robots
Developing a research autonomous plane for flying in a laboratory space is a challenge that forces one to understand the specific aerodynamic, power and construction constraints. In order to obtain a very slow flight while maintaining a high maneuverability, ultralight structures and adequate components are required. In this paper we analyze the wing, propeller and motor characteristics and pro...
متن کاملSensor Network Support for Real-time Indoor Localization of Four-rotor Flying Robots
We present a sensor network based indoor localization system that uses ultrasonic distance measurements for realtime localization of flying four-rotor robots. Such quadrocopters are on-board sensor controlled systems. They are very sensitive to lateral drifts, which cannot be compensated by mounted sensors. In our work, we provide a framework for time-of-flight based localization systems relyin...
متن کاملAutonomous Landing for Indoor Flying Robots Using Optic Flow
Urban environments are time consuming, labor intensive and possibly dangerous to safe guard. Accomplishing tasks like bomb detection, search-andrescue and reconnaissance with aerial robots could save resources. This paper describes a prototype called CQAR: Closed Quarter Aerial Robot, which is capable of flying in and around buildings. The prototype was analytically designed to fly safely and s...
متن کاملSensor-based dead-reckoning for indoor positioning
This paper presents a method of indoor position determination using an accelerometer, compass and gyroscope which are typically available in devices such as smart phones. The method makes use of measurements from such a device worn on the body, such as attached to a belt. The accelerometer in the device estimates the stride length indirectly from the vertical acceleration associated with walkin...
