Using the characteristics of unmanned aerial vehicle/unmanned ground vehicle,
heterogeneous systems can accomplish many complex tasks cooperatively. Moving target …

In recent years, floating debris in the sea has damaged the environment and harmed
wildlife. Systems for collecting floating marine debris in the open ocean by installing a huge …

This paper addresses the control of a fleet of unmanned aerial systems (UAVs), termed as
drones, for flight formation problems. Getting drones to fly in formation is a relevant problem …

UAVs operating in a leader-follower formation demand the knowledge of the relative pose
between the collaborating members. This necessitates the RF-communication of this …

This work creates a model of the value of different external viewpoints of a robot performing
tasks. The current state of the practice is to use a teleoperated assistant robot to provide a …

The adjustment times of the attitude alignment are fluctuated due to the fluctuation of the
contact force signal caused by the disturbing moments in the compliant peg‐in‐hole …

This study proposes a methodology for unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) navigation in off-
road environments where GPS signals are not available. The Husky-A200 at Cranfield …

In this paper we present a novel approach to controlling small unmanned aircraft in third-
person perspective scenarios. Our approach uses monocular imagery to mimic the human …

The sector of maritime robotics has seen a boom in operations in areas such as surveying
and mapping, clean-up, inspections, search and rescue, law enforcement, and national …
