The autonomous formation flight of fixed-wing drones is hard when the coordination requires the actuation over their speeds since they are critically bounded and aircraft are mostly designed to fly at a nominal airspeed. This paper proposes…

In the advent of next-generation wireless communication, millimeter-wave (mmWave) and terahertz (THz) technologies are pivotal for their high data rate capabilities. However, their reliance on large antenna arrays and narrow directive beams…

Drone racing is a recreational sport in which the goal is to pass through a sequence of gates in a minimum amount of time while avoiding collisions. In autonomous drone racing, one must accomplish this task by flying fully autonomously in…

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…

This work presents an online learning-based control method for improved trajectory tracking of unmanned aerial vehicles using both deep learning and expert knowledge. The proposed method does not require the exact model of the system to be…

We propose a novel human-drone interaction paradigm where a user directly interacts with a drone to light-paint predefined patterns or letters through hand gestures. The user wears a glove which is equipped with an IMU sensor to draw…

Maintaining stability in feedback systems, from aircraft and autonomous robots to biological and physiological systems, relies on monitoring their behavior and continuously adjusting their inputs. Incremental damage can make such control…

This paper addresses the problem of building a speech recognition system attuned to the control of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Even though UAVs are becoming widespread, the task of creating voice interfaces for them is largely…

The movie industry has been using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles as a new tool to produce more and more complex and aesthetic camera shots. However, the shooting process currently rely on manual control of the drones which makes it difficult and…

Drones are driving numerous and evolving use cases, and creating transformative socio-economic benefits. Drone operation needs wireless connectivity for communication between drones and ground control systems, among drones, and between…

This paper aims to examine the potential of using the emerging deep reinforcement learning techniques in flight control. Instead of learning from scratch, we suggest to leverage domain knowledge available in learning to improve learning…

While deep reinforcement learning (RL) methods have achieved unprecedented successes in a range of challenging problems, their applicability has been mainly limited to simulation or game domains due to the high sample complexity of the…

Autonomous missions of drones require continuous and reliable estimates for the drone's attitude, velocity, and position. Traditionally, these states are estimated by applying Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) to Accelerometer, Gyroscope,…

Controlling the flight of flapping-wing drones requires versatile controllers that handle their time-varying, nonlinear, and underactuated dynamics from incomplete and noisy sensor data. Model-based methods struggle with accurate modeling,…

As a fire erupts, the first few minutes can be critical, and first respondents must race to the scene to analyze the situation and act fast before it gets out of hand. Factors such as road traffic condition and distance may not allow quick…

This paper presents a data-driven approach to learning vision-based collective behavior from a simple flocking algorithm. We simulate a swarm of quadrotor drones and formulate the controller as a regression problem in which we generate 3D…

Drones are attracting increasing attention in varieties of research fields because of their flexibility and are expected to be applied to a wide range of potential applications, among which the super-high-resolution video surveillance…

In this paper, we present our proposed approach for active tracking to increase the autonomy of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) using event cameras, low-energy imaging sensors that offer significant advantages in speed and dynamic range.…

The increasing popularity of autonomous and remotely-piloted drones have paved the way for several use-cases, e.g., merchandise delivery and surveillance. In many scenarios, estimating with zero-touch the weight of the payload carried by a…

Brain-controlled unmanned aerial vehicle (uav) is a uav that can analyze human brain electrical signals through BCI to obtain flight commands. The research of brain-controlled uav can promote the integration of brain-computer and has a…
