With the rapid advancement of UAV technology, the problem of UAV coalition formation has become a hotspot. Therefore, designing task-driven multi-UAV coalition formation mechanism has become a challenging problem. However, existing…

Small teams in the field can benefit from the capabilities provided by small Uncrewed Aerial Systems (sUAS) for missions such as reconnaissance, hostile attribution, remote emplacement, and search and rescue. The mobility, communications,…

In this paper, a hierarchical multi-UAV simulation platform,called XTDrone, is designed for UAV swarms, which is completely open-source 4 . There are six layers in XTDrone: communication, simulator,low-level control, high-level control,…

This paper presents the development of a real-time simulator for the validation of controlling a large vehicle manipulator. The need for this development can be justified by the lack of such a simulator: There are neither open source…

Collapsing of structural buildings has been sighted commonly and the presence of potential faults has proved to be damaging to the buildings, resulting in accidents. It is essential to continuously monitor any building for faults where…

In this paper we study the problem of steering a team of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) toward a static configuration which maximizes the visibility of a 3D environment. The UAVs are assumed to be equipped with visual sensors constrained…

This paper presents the development of a real time tracking algorithm that runs on a 1.2 GHz PC/104 computer on-board a small UAV. The algorithm uses zero mean normalized cross correlation to detect and locate an object in the image. A…

An important focus of current research in the field of Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAVs) is to increase the safety of their operation in general unstructured environments. Especially indoors, where GPS cannot be used for localization, reliable…

Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarms are increasingly deployed in vast low-altitude applications, owing to their capabilities in distributed sensing, flexible communication, and autonomous coordination. Nevertheless, the open and highly…

As unmanned aerial systems (UASs) increasingly integrate into the US national airspace system, there is an increasing need to characterize how commercial and recreational UASs may encounter each other. To inform the development and…

The use of semi-autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs or drones) to support emergency response scenarios, such as fire surveillance and search-and-rescue, has the potential for huge societal benefits. Onboard sensors and artificial…

Embodied visual tracking is crucial for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) executing complex real-world tasks. In dynamic urban scenarios with complex semantic requirements, Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models show great promise due to their…

We introduce an early-phase bottleneck analysis and characterization model called the F-1 for designing computing systems that target autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). The model provides insights by exploiting the fundamental…

In recent years, using a network of autonomous and cooperative unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) without command and communication from the ground station has become more imperative, in particular in search-and-rescue operations, disaster…

In this paper, we present a novel decentralized controller to drive multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) into a symmetric formation of regular polygon shape surrounding a mobile target. The proposed controller works for time-varying…

This paper presents a novel end-to-end Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) navigation approach for long-range visual navigation in the real world. Inspired by dual-process visual navigation system of human's instinct: environment understanding and…

Autonomous aerial-surface robot teams offer a scalable solution for maritime monitoring, but deployment remains difficult due to water-induced visual artifacts and bandwidth-limited coordination. This paper presents a decentralized…

In this work, we consider a multi-unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) cooperative sensing system where UAVs are deployed to sense multiple targets in terrain-aware line of sight (LoS) conditions in uneven terrain equipped with directional…

In this paper, we construct an air-sea collaborative system framework based on the Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) techniques, where the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) jointly inspect targets of…

Advances in hardware technology have facilitated more integration of sophisticated software toward augmenting the development of Unmanned Vehicles (UVs) and mitigating constraints for onboard intelligence. As a result, UVs can operate in…
