Small-scale rotorcraft unmanned robotic systems (SRURSs) are a kind of unmanned
rotorcraft with manipulating devices. This review aims to provide an overview on aerial …

This article analyzes the evolution and current trends in aerial robotic manipulation,
comprising helicopters, conventional underactuated multirotors, and multidirectional thrust …

Multirotors have received a great attention from researchers and the general public, as a
platform on which various ideas can be easily demonstrated. This paper aims to provide …

This paper presents planning and control synthesis for multiple aerial manipulators to
transport a common object. Each aerial manipulator that consists of a hexacopter and a two …

This paper presents estimation and control synthesis for an aerial manipulator to carry an
unknown payload. Online estimation is based on parametrization of the aerial manipulator …

This paper investigates pose manipulation of a rod-shaped object using two aerial
manipulators, which are multirotors combined with multi-degrees of freedom robotic arms …

In this paper, we consider multiple quacopter aerial robots and develop a decentralized
adaptive controller to cooperatively manipulate a payload. We assume that the mass of the …

This paper presents an approach that generates the overall trajectory of mobile
manipulators for a complex mission consisting of several sub-tasks. Parametric dynamic …

This review paper focuses on quadrotor-and multirotor-based cooperative aerial
manipulation. Emphasis is first given to comparing and evaluating prototype systems that …

The objective of this survey paper is to review the state-of-the-art related to quadrotor-and
multirotor-based cooperative aerial manipulation, with a focus on comparing and evaluating …
