A Navigation System for Autonomous Robot Operating in Unknown and Dynamic Environment: Escaping Algorithm
In this study, the problem of navigation in dynamic and unknown environment is investigated and a navigation method based on force field approach is suggested. It is assumed that the robot performs navigation in...
متن کاملVisually guided landing of an unmanned aerial vehicle
We present the design and implementation of a real-time, vision-based landing algorithm for an autonomous helicopter. The landing algorithm is integrated with algorithms for visual acquisition of the target (a helipad), and navigation to the target, from an arbitrary initial position and orientation. We use vision for precise target detection and recognition, and a combination of vision and GPS...
متن کاملVision-based Autonomous Landing of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle
We present the design and implementation of a realtime, vision-based landing algorithm for an autonomous helicopter. The helicopter is required to navigate from an initial position to a final position in a partially known environment based on GPS and vision, locate a landing target (a helipad of a known shape) and land on it. We use vision for precise target detection and recognition. The helic...
متن کاملField-Testing of a Helicopter UAV Obstacle Field Navigation and Landing System
Flight test results and lessons learned are presented for a helicopter UAV low-altitude navigation and landing system. Results are given for both urban and natural settings. The navigation component uses a quasi-3D A* approach to route planning that enables maneuver through complex terrain using real-time sensor data. The landing component performs landings to sites that it determines to be saf...
متن کاملSpecial Issue on Development of Autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
In support of military operations and civil applications, the Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have quickly emerged as useful and versatile tools with extensive scope of mission profiles. Examples range from small-sized UAVs like Wasp and Black Widow, to medium-sized UAVs like Pioneer and RMAX, to large-sized UAVs like Global Hawk and A160. Flying platforms vary from fixed-wing, rotary-wing, fla...
