Formation Control With Obstacle Avoidance of Underwater Swarms Based on Relative Visual Feedback

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Underwater multi‐robot and swarm systems require advanced methodologies for controlling collective behavior. Conventional single‐robot techniques, such as tethering, sonar imaging, and acoustic localization, are not scalable or effective for swarm applications.

Enhancing Drone Light Shows Performances: Optimal Allocation and Trajectories for Swarm Drone Formations

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drone light shows (DLShows) represent a rapidly growing application of swarm robotics, creating captivating aerial displays through the synchronized flight of hundreds or thousands of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as environmentally friendly and reusable alternatives to traditional pyrotechnics.

ADAPT: An Autonomous Forklift for Construction Site Operation

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient material logistics are critical in controlling costs and schedules in the construction industry. However, manual material handling remains prone to inefficiencies, delays, and safety risks. Autonomous forklifts offer a solution to streamline on‐site logistics, reducing reliance on human operators and mitigating labor shortages.

Evaluating Pose Estimation Uncertainty From Automatic Point Cloud Registration in Multi‐Sensor Robotic Systems

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The poses derived from automatic point cloud registration between stationary laser scans that occur naturally in robotic multi‐sensor systems operating in stop‐and‐go mode have the potential to greatly improve and aid localization and trajectory estimation.

Detecting Plateau Zokor (Eospalax baileyi) Mounds in UAV Imagery of Alpine Meadows Using Deep Learning Algorithms

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We developed PZM‐YOLO to automatically detect plateau zokor mounds in UAV imagery of alpine meadows. The model achieved reliable detection of small and densely distributed mounds under complex backgrounds, outperforming the baseline YOLOv5s. This framework supports mound counting, mound position, rodent impact assessment, and grassland restoration ...
