With the rapid development of the UAV, it is widely used in rescue and disaster relief, where
autonomous landing is the key technology. Vision-based autonomous landing has the …

The advancement of autonomous technology in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has
piloted a new era in aviation. While UAVs were initially utilized only for the military, rescue …

In the last few years, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have proven to be an invaluable
tool in Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions, changing paradigms …

The pose (3D position and orientation) of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) during the
landing process aboard a ship can be estimated using a 3D model-based vision system …

The vast increase in the available computational capability has allowed the application of
Particle-Filter (PF)-based approaches for monocular 3D-model-based tracking. These filters …

The AUTOLAND project main objective was the development of solutions that can enable
the autonomous landing of a fixed-wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) on a Fast Patrol …

It is of the utmost importance for every country to monitor and control maritime pollution
within its exclusive economic zone (EEZ). The European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA) …

Nowadays Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) agents are real threats,
and they can be released from intentional and non-intentional sources. Intentional sources …

Pose estimation measured by the camera is increasingly used in helicopter landing. We
present a pose estimation algorithm for autonomous landing. You Only Look Once (YOLO) …

This thesis proposes a reference model to describe the components of an Unmanned Air,
Ground, Surface, or Underwater System (UxS), and the use of a single Interoperability …
