GPS Jamming Detection in UAV Navigation Using Visual Odometry and HOD Trajectory Descriptor
Auto-navigating of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) in the outdoor environment is performed by using the Global positioning system (GPS) receiver. The power of the GPS signal on the earth surface is very low. This can affect the performance of GPS receivers in the environments contaminated with the other source of radio frequency interference (RFI). GPS jamming and spoofing are the most serious a...
متن کاملHoneybee navigation: odometry with monocular input.
Recent studies have revealed that navigating honeybees, Apis mellifera, estimate the distance to a food source by integrating over time the image motion that they experience en route. Here we examine the ability of honeybees to gauge distance travelled when visual input is available primarily to one eye. Bees were trained to fly into a tunnel, lined with textured patterns, to collect a reward a...
متن کاملVisual Odometry: Autonomous UAV Navigation using Optic Flow and Stereo
Visual odometry is vital to the future of mobile robotics. In this paper, we demonstrate a method that combines information from optic flow and stereo to estimate and control the current position of a quadrotor along a pre-defined trajectory. The absolute translation in 3D is computed by combining the optic flow measurements between successive frames and stereo-based height over ground. The cur...
متن کاملFusion of Fixation and Odometry for Vehicle Navigation
This paper deals with the problem of determining the position and orientation of an autonomous guided vehicle (AGV) by fusing odometry with the information provided by a vision system. The main idea is to exploit the ability of pointing a camera in different directions, to fixate on a point of the environment while the AGV is moving. By fixating on a landmark, one can improve the navigation acc...
متن کاملSpatial Memory in Insect Navigation
A wide variety of insects use spatial memories in behaviours like holding a position in air or flowing water, in returning to a place of safety, and in foraging. The Hymenoptera, in particular, have evolved life-histories requiring reliable spatial memories to support the task of provisioning their young. Behavioural experiments, primarily on social bees and ants, reveal the mechanisms by which...
