We propose an observer for rotational dynamics subject to directional and gyroscopic measurements, which simultaneously estimates the gyroscopic biases and attitude rates. We show uniform almost global asymptotic and local exponential…
In this work, we utilize discrete geometric mechanics to derive a 2nd-order variational integrator so as to simulate rigid body dynamics. The developed integrator is to simulate the motion of a free rigid body and a quad-rotor. We…
This paper presents four types of tracking control systems for the attitude dynamics of a rigid body. First, a smooth control system is constructed to track a given desired attitude trajectory, while guaranteeing almost semi-global…
We propose a new position control strategy for VTOL-UAVs using IMU and GPS measurements. Since there is no sensor that measures the attitude, our approach does not rely on the knowledge (or reconstruction) of the system orientation as…
This paper proposes a novel observer-based controller for Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) designed to directly receive measurements from a Vision-Aided Inertial Navigation System (VA-INS) and produce the…
This paper revisits the problem of orientation estimation for rigid bodies through a novel framework based on scalar measurements. Unlike traditional vector-based methods, the proposed approach enables selective utilization of only the…
Attitude estimation using scalar measurements, corresponding to partial vectorial observations, arises naturally when inertial vectors are not fully observed but only measured along specific body-frame vectors. Such measurements arise in…
We propose a 12-dimensional, global, continuous, and exponentially convergent observer for gyro bias and attitude of a rigid body. Any attitude observer developed on the special orthogonal group suffers from the topological restriction that…
This paper investigates the estimation problem of the pose (orientation and position) and linear velocity of a rigid body, as well as the landmark positions, using an inertial measurement unit (IMU) and a monocular camera. First, we propose…
This paper presents a hybrid attitude and gyro-bias observer designed directly on the Special Orthogonal group SO(3). The proposed hybrid observer, relying on a hysteresis-based switching between two configurations, guarantees global…
A deterministic attitude estimator for a rigid body under an attitude dependent potential is studied. This estimator requires only a single direction measurement to a known reference point at each measurement instant. The measurement cannot…
The attitude tracking problem for a full-actuated rigid body in 3D is studied using a impulsive system model based on Lie algebra so(3). A nonlinear homogeneous controller is designed to globally track a smooth attitude trajectory in a…
This paper presents a deterministic hybrid observer for the attitude dynamics of a rigid body that guarantees global asymptotical stability. Any smooth attitude observer suffers from the inherent topological restriction that it is…
This paper proposes new algorithms for attitude estimation and control based on fused inertial vector measurements using linear complementary filters principle. First, n-order direct and passive complementary filters combined with TRIAD…
Inertial Velocity-Aided Attitude (VAA), the estimation of the velocity and attitude of a vehicle using gyroscope, accelerometer, and inertial-frame velocity (e.g. GPS velocity) measurements, is an important problem in the control of…
A geometric estimator is proposed for the rigid body attitude under multi-rate measurements using discrete-time Lyapunov stability analysis in this work. The angular velocity measurements are assumed to be sampled at a higher rate compared…
This paper presents a new geometric adaptive control system with state inequality constraints for the attitude dynamics of a rigid body. The control system is designed such that the desired attitude is asymptotically stabilized, while the…
The attitude of a rigid body evolves on the three-dimensional special orthogonal group, and it is often estimated by measuring reference directions, such as gravity or magnetic field, using an onboard sensor. As a single direction…
The control task of tracking a reference pointing direction (the attitude about the pointing direction is irrelevant) while obtaining a desired angular velocity (PDAV) around the pointing direction using geometric techniques is addressed…
This paper presents hybrid attitude and gyro-bias observers designed directly on the Special Orthogonal group SO(3). The proposed hybrid observers, enjoying global exponential stability, rely on a hysteresis-based switching between…
