Scan Alignment and 3-D Surface Modeling with a Helicopter Platform
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes initial results for a laser-based aerial mapping system. Our approach applies a real-time laser scan matching algorithm to 2-D range data acquired by a remotely controlled helicopter. Results obtain for urban and natural terrain exhibit an unprecedented level of spatial detail in the resulting 3-D maps.

This paper describes a scanning laser rangefinder developed for integration with the Carnegie Mellon University autonomous helicopter. The combination of an unmanned, autonomous helicopter with a 3-D scanning laser rangefinder has many potential applications; such as terrain modeling or structure inspection. To achieve high accuracy (10 cm) in each 3-D measurement, careful attention must be pai...
متن کاملIntelligent Auto pilot Design for a Nonlinear Model of an Autonomous Helicopter by Adaptive Emotional Approach
There is a growing interest in the modeling and control of model helicopters using nonlinear dynamic models and nonlinear control. Application of a new intelligent control approach called Brain Emotional Learning Based Intelligent Controller (BELBIC) to design autopilot for an autonomous helicopter is addressed in this paper. This controller is applied to a nonlinear model of a helicopter. This...
متن کاملOne-Dimensional Modeling of Helicopter-Borne Electromagnetic Data Using Marquardt-Levenberg Including Backtracking-Armijo Line Search Strategy
In the last decades, helicopter-borne electromagnetic (HEM) method became a focus of interest in the fields of mineral exploration, geological mapping, groundwater resource investigation and environmental monitoring. As a standard approach, researchers use 1-D inversion of the acquired HEM data to recover the conductivity/resistivity-depth models. Since the relation between HEM data and model ...
متن کاملGyroscope Drift Error Analysis in the Position-Independent Navigation Algorithm of a stable platform Inertial System
This paper deals with analyzing gyroscope drift error in the position-independent navigation algorithm of a stable platform inertial system. Most of the stable platform navigation algorithms proposed in the literature have drawbacks of estimating position rates for alignment commands. Not only the estimating position rates are the basic source of position errors, but they also make the alignmen...
متن کاملAutomatic Landing of Small Helicopters on 4 DOF Moving Platforms
In this research, an automatic control system is designed for landing of a small helicopter on a 4 DOF moving platform. The platform has three translational and one directional degree of freedom. The controller design approach is based on development of helicopter nonlinear dynamic model into the SDC (State Dependent Coefficient) form and real time solving of state dependent Riccati equation (S...
