— A fast and robust method for visual odometry based on the Fourier-Mellin Invariant (FMI) descriptor is presented. It extends previous FMI based approaches in two ways. First, a...
Abstract This paper presents a methodology based on a variation of the Rapidlyexploring Random Trees (RRTs) that generates feasible trajectories for a team of autonomous aerial veh...
— An image-based visual servo control is presented for an Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) capable of stationary or quasi-stationary flight. The proposed control design addresses v...
We apply a Reactive Tabu Search (RTS) heuristic within a discrete-event simulation to solve routing problems for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Our formulation represents this p...
