A vision-based strategy for autonomous aerial refueling tasks
Autonomous aerial refueling is a key enabling technology for both manned and unmanned aircraft where extended flight duration or range are required. The results presentedwithin this paper offer one potential vision-based sensing solution, together with a unique test environment. A hierarchical visual tracking algorithm based on direct methods is proposed and developed for the purposes of tracki...
متن کاملMonocular Vision Navigation Sensor for Autonomous Aerial Refueling
Autonomous aerial refueling technology is an effective solution to extend flight duration of unmanned aerial vehicles, and also a great challenge due to its high risk. For autonomous probeand-drogue refueling tasks, relative navigation to provide relative position between the receiver aircraft and the refueling drogue is the first and essential step, and vision-based method is the most frequent...
متن کاملMonocular, Vision Based, Autonomous Refueling System
This paper describes design and implementation of a vision based platform for automated refueling tasks. The platform is an autonomous docking system in principle, with the specific application– refueling of vehicles. The system is based on monochromatic, monocular vision, and it utilizes very specialized image processing schemes. Image processing consists of very fast filtering and segmenting ...

متن کاملRobust Trajectory Tracking Controller for Vision Based Probe and Drogue Autonomous Aerial Refueling
This paper addresses autonomous aerial refueling between an unmanned tanker aircraft and an unmanned receiver aircraft using the probe-and-drogue method. An important consideration is the ability to achieve successful docking in the presence of exogenous inputs such as atmospheric turbulence. Practical probe and drogue autonomous aerial refueling requires a reliable sensor capable of providing ...
