Biomimetic sensor suite for flight control of a micromechanical flying insect: design and experimental results
Four prototypes of biomimetic sensors have been designed and implemented for flight control of a robotic flying insect. The ocelli use four photodiodes to detect changes in light intensity in the surrounding. The halteres use piezoactuated vibrating structures to sense body rotational velocities via the Coriolis forces. The optic flow sensors consist of linear arrays of elementary motion detect...
متن کاملHovering Flight for a Micromechanical Flying Insect: Modeling and Robust Control Synthesis
This paper describes recent results on the design and simulation of a flight control strategy for the Micromechanical Flying Insect (MFI), a 10-25mm (wingtipto-wingtip) device capable of sustained autonomous flight. Biologically inspired by the real insect’s flight maneuver, position control is achieved via attitude control. The wings motion is parameterized by a small set of parameters which a...
متن کاملVirtual Insect Flight Simulator (VIFS): a Software Testbed for Insect Flight
This paper presents the design of software simulation VIFS for insect flight. In particular, it is intended to estimate flight control algorithms and performance for a Micromechanical Flying Insect (MFI), a 10-25 mm (wingtip-to-wingtip) device eventually capable of sustained autonomous flight. The VIFS is an end-to-end tool composed of several modular blocks which model the actuators dynamics, ...
متن کاملFlight Control System for a Micromechanical Flying Insect: Architecture and Implementation
This paper describes recent results on the design and simulation of a flight control system for Micromechanical Flying Insect (MFI), a 10-25 mm (wingtip-to-wingtip) device eventually capable of sustained autonomous flight. The biologically inspired system architecture results in a hierarchical structure of different control methodologies, which give the possibility to plan complex missions from...
متن کاملModel identification and attitude control scheme for a micromechanical flying insect
This paper describes recent development on the design of the flight control system for a Micromechanical Flying Insect (&PI), a 10-25mm (wingtipto-wingtip) device capable of sustained autonomous flight. High level attitude control is considered. Based on our previous work [l], in which the complex time-varying component of aerodynamic forces are treated as extemal disturbances, a nominal state-...
