Vertical landing for micro air vehicles using event-based optical flow
Small flying robots can perform landing maneuvers using bio-inspired optical flow by maintaining a constant divergence. However, optical flow is typically estimated from frame sequences recorded by standard miniature cameras. This requires processing full images on-board, limiting the update rate of divergence measurements, and thus the speed of the control loop and the robot. Event-based camer...
متن کاملAutonomous landing and ingress of micro-air-vehicles in urban environments based on monocular vision
Unmanned micro air vehicles (MAVs) will play an important role in future reconnaissance and search and rescue applications. In order to conduct persistent surveillance and to conserve energy, MAVs need the ability to land, and they need the ability to enter (ingress) buildings and other structures to conduct reconnaissance. To be safe and practical under a wide range of environmental conditions...

Present-day research on autono up against a serious problem, w always been faced from the v obstacles. The ground-observa “drones” are sent require the patterns of ground relief. In th Air Vehicles (UAV) and Micr drones, the eyes and brain of th by an on-board processing syste through even the most cluttered winged insects are particular flying machines that can serve a micro-robots of the futu...
متن کاملFlexible-Wing-Based Micro Air Vehicles
This paper documents the development and evaluation of an original flexible-wing-based Micro Air Vehicle (MAV) technology that reduces adverse effects of gusty wind conditions and unsteady aerodynamics, exhibits desirable flight stability, and enhances structural durability. The flexible wing concept has been demonstrated on aircraft with wingspans ranging from 18 inches to 5 inches. Salient fe...
متن کاملLanding and Perching on Vertical Surfaces with Microspines for Small Unmanned Air Vehicles
We present the first results of a system that allows small fixedwing UAVs to land and cling on surfaces such as brick walls using arrays of microspines that engage asperities on the surface. The requirements of engaging and loading the spines lead to an approach in which an open-loop pitch-up motion is triggered by a range sensor as the plane nears the wall. The subsequent dynamics result in a ...
