Application of Sensory Body Schemas to Path Planning for Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs)
Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Informatics in Control, Automation and Robotics, 2015 To date, most autonomous micro air vehicles (MAV-s) operate in a controlled environment, where the location of and attitude of the aircraft are measured be dedicated high-power computers with IR tracking capability. If MAV-s are to ever exit the lab and carry out autonomous missions, their flight control systems needs to utilize on-board sensors and ...

DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION, MAINTENANCE, 2021 We present a hands-free kinetic control method for flying of micro air vehicles (MAVs) or small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for public protection and disaster relief (PPDR). The system combines a 3D depth-sensing camera with a low-cost drone. The solution is based on Delicode Ltd’s NI mateTM software toolkit.
