Enhanced Cell Controller for Aerospace Manufacturing

open access: yesAdvances in Robotics & Automation, 2016
Aerospace manufacturing industry is unique in that production typically focuses on high variety and quality but extremely low volume. Manufacturing processes are also sometimes unique and not repeatable and, hence, costly. Production is getting more expensive with the introduction of industrial robots and their cells.

Angle-Only Cooperative Orbit Determination Considering Attitude Uncertainty

open access: yesSensors, 2023
In this paper, a novel concept for cooperative orbit determination (OD) using inter-spacecraft angle-only measurements is proposed. Different from the conventional cooperative OD that only estimates orbit states, the attitude of the observer spacecraft ...

Coordinated Standoff Target Tracking Guidance Method for UAVs

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
We need a coordinated control method to continuously track a moving target using a group of UAVs. In this paper, we study the predicted reference point guidance method, where the target is considered to move with a constant velocity in a very short time ...
