– A vision-based obstacle detection system for small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is presented. Obstacles are detected by segmenting the image into sky and non-sky regions and...
Abstract— The latest technological progress in sensors, actuators and energy storage devices enables the developments of miniature VTOL1 systems. In this paper we present the res...
— Rendering a stiff virtual wall remains a core challenge in the field of haptics. A passivity study of this problem is presented, which relates the maximum achievable wall stif...
− This paper addresses the combined problem of trajectory planning and tracking control for underactuated AUVs moving on the horizontal plane. A reference feasible trajectory for...
Intelligent controllers are being used with increasing effectiveness on complex systems. This work verifies the effectiveness of fuzzy control, an intelligent method, on a sing...
