Landing Strategies in Honeybees and Applications to Uninhabited Airborne Vehicles
An application of insect visuomotor behavior to automatic control of landing is explored. Insects, being perhaps more reliant on image motion cues than mammals or higher vertebrates, are proving to be an excellent organism in which to investigate how information on optic flow is exploited to guide locomotion and navigation. We have observed how bees perform grazing landings on a flat surface an...
متن کاملAutonomous Landing of Miniature Aerial Vehicles
This paper outlines a simple algorithm for automated landing of miniature aerial vehicles (MAVs). Utilizing estimates of height above ground from barometric pressure and optic flow measurements, repeated landings were performed with a 1.5 m wingspan MAV. With height above ground estimated from barometric pressure measurements alone, landing errors averaged 7.6 m. When optic flow and barometric ...
متن کاملApplications Panel: Agents Applied to Autonomous Vehicles
In order to make an unmanned vehicle drive truly autonomously, many different software components are needed. Each of these components is tasked with providing a particular function that is necessary to accomplish the ultimate goal of autonomous driving. Typical functions include perception, sensory processing, world modeling, planning, route following, behavior generation and value judgment. E...
متن کاملImproved Vision-Based Algorithm for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Autonomous Landing
In vision-based autonomous landing system of UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle), the efficiency of object detection and tracking will directly affect the control system. An improved algorithm of SURF (Speed Up Robust Features) will resolve the problem which is inefficiency of the SURF algorithm in the autonomous landing system of UAV. The improved algorithm is composed of three steps: first, detect ...
