چکیده
This paper presents a novel algorithm to plan energy-efficient trajectories for autonomous ornithopters. In general, trajectory optimization is quite relevant problem practical applications with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Even though the has been well studied fixed and rotatory-wing vehicles, there are far fewer works exploring it flapping-wing UAVs, like These of interest many where long-flight endurance, but also hovering capabilities, required. We propose an efficient approach ornithopter that minimize energy consumption by combining gliding flapping maneuvers. Our builds tree dynamically feasible applies heuristic search online planning, using reference curves guide prune states. present computational experiments analyze tune key parameters, as comparison against recent alternative probabilistic planner, showing best performance. Finally, we demonstrate how our can be used planning perching maneuvers online.

Optimal Kinodynamic Planning For Autonomous Vehicles
This paper presents a two-phase kinodynamic planning algorithm, which uses a randomized planner to compute low-cost robotic motions, and optimal control to locally optimize them. The direct transcription approach is used with an NLP numerical optimization algorithm. The algorithms are tested on motion planning for a non-holonomic autonomous vehicle. The results indicate that the two-phase appro...
متن کاملKinodynamic Motion Planning for an X4-Flyer
This chapter describes kinodynamic motion planning and its application. Kinodynamics is the discipline that tries to solve kinematic constraints and dynamical constraints simultaneously. By using kinodynamic motion planning, control inputs can be generated in a much simpler way, compared to the conventional motion planning that solves kinematics and dynamics separately. After briefly overviewin...
متن کاملEnergy efficient path planning for skid-steered autonomous ground vehicles
It is important to minimize the energy consumption of autonomous ground vehicles (AGVs) deployed in real world missions. One of the ways that this can be accomplished is to choose the vehicle’s motion to minimize the mechanical and electrical energy usage required by the vehicle’s motion. This paper considers energy efficient motion planning for skid-steered AGVs, an important and large class o...
متن کاملSparse Methods for Efficient Asymptotically Optimal Kinodynamic Planning
Abstract. This work describes STABLE SPARSE RRT (SST), an algorithm that (a) provably provides asymptotic (near-)optimality for kinodynamic planning without access to a steering function, (b) maintains only a sparse set of samples, (c) converges fast to high-quality paths and (d) achieves competitive running time to RRT, which provides only probabilistic completeness. SST addresses the limitati...
متن کاملKinodynamic Motion Planning 1 Kinodynamic Motion Planning 5
Kinodynamic planning attempts to solve a robot motion problem subject to simultaneous kinematic and dynamics constraints. In the general problem, given a robot system, we must nd a minimal-time trajectory that goes from a start position and velocity to a goal position and velocity while avoiding obstacles by a safety margin and respecting constraints on velocity and acceleration. We consider th...
