Towards Intelligent Miniature Flying Robots
This paper presents a practical method for small-scale VTOL design. It helps for elements selection and dimensioning. We apply the latter to design a fully autonomous quadrotor with numerous innovations in design methodology, steering and propulsion achieving 100% thrust margin for 30min autonomy. The robot is capable of rotational and translational motion estimation. Finally, we derive a nonli...

CONRO: Towards Miniature Self-Su cient Metamorphic Robots Andr es Casta~ no Wei-Min Shen Peter Will Information Sciences Institute University of Southern California 4676 Admiralty Way Marina del Rey, CA 90292 Abstract Metamorphic robots are an emerging eld in which robots can dynamically and intelligently recon gure shape and size not only for individual robots (intrarobot metamorphing) but als...
متن کاملBio-Inspired Tail in Miniature Robots
Inertial tails (or appendages) have been previously demonstrated in ground robotics for retaining stability after an impact [1], maintaining orientation during jumps and falls [24], for fast turns and increased maneuverability [5,6]. Here, I will discuss implementation of tails on miniature robots where the traditional control/steering is not applicable due to the size limitations. An off-the-s...
متن کاملExperiments with a Team of Miniature Robots
This paper presents several experiments with a large team of heterogeneous robots. The team consists of two types of robotic agents. The rst type is a larger, heavy-duty robotic platform, called the \ranger." Rangers are used to transport, deploy, and supervise a number of small, mobile sensor platforms called \scouts," the second type of robotic agent. In an example scenario, the scouts are de...
متن کاملMiniature robots for space and military missions
ABSTUCT Miniature robots enable low-cost planetary surface exploration missions, and new military missions in urban terrain where small robots provide critical assistance to human operations. These space and military missions have many similar technological challenges. Robots can be deployed in environments where it may not be safe or affordable to send humans, or where robots can reduce the ri...
