We survey the recent work on micro unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), a fast-growing field
in robotics, outlining the opportunities for research and applications, along with the scientific …

Over the past few years, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have become more and more
popular. The complexity of routing UAVs has not been fully investigated in the literature. In …

Due to the advantages of flexible deployment and extensive coverage, unmanned aerial
vehicles (UAVs) have significant potential for sensing applications in the next generation of …

Literature reviews on Multi-Robot Systems (MRS) typically focus on fundamental technical
aspects, like coordination and communication, that need to be considered in order to …

We consider a Persistent Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (PISR) routing
problem, which includes collecting data from a set of specified task locations and delivering …

Multi-robot path planning has evolved from research to real applications in warehouses and
other domains; the knowledge on this topic is reflected in the large amount of related …

In this paper, we consider the problem of planning a path for a robot to monitor a known set
of features of interest in an environment. We represent the environment as a graph with …

Control of autonomous vehicles for applications such as surveillance, search, and
exploration has been a topic of great interest over the past two decades. In particular, there …

Navigating between the different floors of a multistory building is a task that requires walking
up or down stairs or taking an elevator or lift. This work proposes a procedure to take a …

This paper investigates some cooperative Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) executing both
visiting tasks and transportation tasks. The UAVs are subject to random shocks which may …
