Current drone delivery solutions mainly focus on single package delivery using one drone. However, the recent developments in drone technology enable a drone to deliver multiple packages in a single trip. We use the nearest destination…

Current drone delivery systems mostly focus on point-to-point package delivery. We present a multi-stop drone service system to deliver packages anywhere anytime within a specified geographic area. We define a skyway network which takes…

In the evolving era of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), the emphasis has moved from mere data collection to strategically obtaining timely and relevant data within the Internet of Drones (IoDs) ecosystem. However, the unpredictable…

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have drastically gained popularity in various Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) applications to improve the safety and efficiency of transportation systems. In this context, the combination of ground…

This paper presents a novel system for autonomous, vision-based drone racing combining learned data abstraction, nonlinear filtering, and time-optimal trajectory planning. The system has successfully been deployed at the first autonomous…

Precise soft landings on asteroids are central to many deep space missions for surface exploration and resource exploitation. To improve the autonomy and intelligence of landing control, a real-time optimal control approach is proposed…

The drone-based last-mile delivery is an emerging technology to deliver parcels using drones loaded on a truck. As more and more autonomous vehicles (AVs) will be available for delivery services, an opportunity is arising to fully automate…

Bi-modal delivery systems are a promising solution to the challenges posed by the increasing demand of e-commerce. Due to the potential benefit drones can have on logistics networks such as delivery systems, some countries have taken steps…

As UAV technology improves, more uses have been found for these versatile autonomous vehicles, from surveillance to aerial photography, to package delivery, and each of these applications poses unique challenges. This paper implements a…

Fast shipping and efficient routing are key problems of modern logistics. Building on previous studies that address package delivery from a source node to a destination within a graph using multiple agents (such as vehicles, drones, and…

Drones have been considered as an alternative means of package delivery to reduce the delivery cost and time. Due to the battery limitations, the drones are best suited for last-mile delivery, i.e., the delivery from the package…

A seagull ({\it Larus crassirostris}) has a high ability to realize its safe, accurate and smooth landing. We examined how a seagull controls its angle of attack when landing on a specific target. First, we recorded the landing behavior of…

This paper considers the optimization problems that arise to coordinate a tandem between a mothership vehicle and a fleet of drones. %more than one drone. Each drone can be launched from the mothership to perform an operation. After…

Precision landing is a remaining challenge in autonomous drone flight. Fiducial markers provide a computationally cheap way for a drone to locate a landing pad and autonomously execute precision landings. However, most work in this field…

Drones are becoming indispensable in many application domains. In data-driven missions, besides sensing, the drone must process the collected data at runtime to decide whether additional action must be taken on the spot, before moving to…

Agility and resilience requirements of future cellular networks may not be fully satisfied by terrestrial base stations in cases of unexpected or temporary events. A promising solution is assisting the cellular network via low-altitude…

Humans race drones faster than algorithms, despite being limited to a fixed camera angle, body rate control, and response latencies in the order of hundreds of milliseconds. A better understanding of the ability of human pilots of selecting…

In recent years, drone delivery, which utilizes unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for package delivery and pickup, has gradually emerged as a crucial method in logistics. Since delivery drones are expensive and may carry valuable packages,…

With technological advancement, drone has emerged as unmanned aerial vehicle that can be controlled by humans to fly or reach a destination. This may be autonomous as well, where the drone itself is intelligent enough to find a shortest…

With the rapid advance of sophisticated control algorithms, the capabilities of drones to stabilise, fly and manoeuvre autonomously have dramatically improved, enabling us to pay greater attention to entire missions and the interaction of a…
