This paper proposes a drive-through recharging strategy for a quadrotor. First, a ground
charging station is constructed with a portable charging wire, then with two conductive hooks …

Unmanned sailboats are driven only by wind, making them good platforms for the
synchronous observation of air-sea interfaces over a large range. Compared with traditional …

Autonomous sailing robots have attracted much attention, but challenges arise due to the
sailing tests require an environment with both aerodynamic and hydrodynamic fields and a …

Extensive research has been conducted on autonomous surface robots and underwater
robots for various tasks in aquatic environments. The duration of the operation of …

Sailboats have a wide range of applications on account of their energy-saving,
environmentally benign and low-noise characteristics. This has led to the increasing …
