Air-ground Matching: Appearance-based GPS-denied Urban Localization of Micro Aerial Vehicles
In this paper, we address the problem of globally localizing and tracking the pose of a camera-equipped micro aerial vehicle (MAV) flying in urban streets at low altitudes without GPS. An image-based global positioning system is introduced to localize the MAV with respect to the surrounding buildings. We propose a novel airground image-matching algorithm to search the airborne image of the MAV ...
متن کاملSystem for deployment of groups of unmanned micro aerial vehicles in GPS-denied environments using onboard visual relative localization
A complex system for control of swarms of micro aerial vehicles (MAV), in literature also called as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) or unmanned aerial systems (UAS), stabilized via an onboard visual relative localization is described in this paper. The main purpose of this work is to verify the possibility of self-stabilization of multi-MAV groups without an external global positioning system. T...
متن کاملOptimal surveillance coverage for teams of micro aerial vehicles in GPS-denied environments using onboard vision
This paper deals with the problem of deploying a team of flying robots to perform surveillance-coverage missions over a terrain of arbitrary morphology. In such missions, a key factor for the successful completion of the mission is the knowledge of the terrain’s morphology. The focus of this paper is on the implementation of a two-step procedure that allows us to optimally align a team of flyin...
متن کاملNavigation and Control for Micro Aerial Vehicles in GPS-Denied Environments
Micro-air vehicles have been increasingly employed in diverse research projects in both military and civilian applications. That is because their high maneuverability and accurate mobility. Many of them have been successfully used in outdoor areas, while some have been operated indoors. However, very few have dedicated especial attention to the case of high pitch and roll movements while doing ...
متن کاملA Multi-Sensorial Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) System for Low-Cost Micro Aerial Vehicles in GPS-Denied Environments
One of the main challenges of aerial robots navigation in indoor or GPS-denied environments is position estimation using only the available onboard sensors. This paper presents a Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) system that remotely calculates the pose and environment map of different low-cost commercial aerial platforms, whose onboard computing capacity is usually limited. The prop...
