Second Session Visual Navigation for Flying Robots Workshop

In this paper, we describe a system that enables a low-cost quadrocopter coupled with a ground-based laptop to navigate autonomously in previously unknown and GPSdenied environments. Our system consists of three components: a monocular SLAM system, an extended Kalman lter for data fusion and state estimation and a PID controller to generate steering commands. Next to a working system, the main ...

Summary of Workshop Session C: Surface Properties, Measurements and Treatments

This is a summary of Session C of the ECLOUD’04 workshop. The session was dedicated to Surface Properties, Measurements and Treatments. Much progress has been achieved in particle accelerator laboratories in the understanding and finding possible treatments to reduce the secondary electron yield at the surface and cure the electron cloud effect.

Summary of Workshop Session F on Electron-cloud Instabilities*

We summarize Session F of the ECLOUD’04 workshop. This session was dedicated to beam instabilities driven by electron cloud. Specifically, we discuss the principal observations of electron-cloud instabilities, analytical models, simulation codes and the next steps that need to be taken to arrive at a predictive theory.
