This article is an introduction to feedback control design for a family of robotic aerial vehicles
with vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) capabilities such as quadrotors, ducted-fan tail …

This paper presents an algorithm that generates collision-free trajectories in three
dimensions for multiple vehicles within seconds. The problem is cast as a non-convex …

This paper presents a method allowing a quadrocopter with a rigidly attached racket to hit a
ball towards a target. An algorithm is developed to generate an open loop trajectory guiding …

Control of aerial robots is a popular research field as applications with different payloads
lead to a variety of flight missions. Quadrotor-type unmanned systems are one such example …

This paper explores the use of drones for entertainment with the emerging technology of
AVR (Augmented and Virtual Reality) over the past 10 years from 2006 to 2016. Drones …

This chapter reviews an approach for generating rhythmic flight motions that are executed by
quadrocopters and timed to music. It represents a research and artistic experiment, which …

The authors interest in this work is to perform a precise real‐time flocking of multiple
unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). A consensus‐based flocking algorithm that ensures a …

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) can navigate with low risk in obstacle-free environments
using ground control stations that plan a series of GPS waypoints as a path to follow. This …

In this paper, a quadrotor test bench that can test and verify the 6 DOF flight controller is
presented. The development of controller for aerial vehicle is usually a long and dangerous …

The Flying Machine Arena (FMA) is an indoor research space built specifically for the study
of autonomous systems and aerial robotics. In this video, we give an overview of this testbed …
