In the Flying Systems Lab, the primary research interests and contributions lie within the areas of perception, guidance and control of unmanned aerial vehicles. In today’s world, it is not sufficient to design autonomous systems that are able to replicate given tasks in a repetitive manner. We must be ready to push the boundaries by leveraging the current state-of-the-art autonomy level towards smarter systems which will learn and interact with their environment, collaborate with people and other systems, plan their future actions and execute the given task accurately.
Mobile Systems Arena – Precise motion tracking in the Flying Lab
- Ideal for experiments in autonomous navigation, flight stabilization, multi-agent coordination, and for validating control algorithms and sensor data fusion
- Millimeter-accurate real-time tracking and analysis of the movement of drones, robots and other mobile systems - made possible by Vicon's high-precision motion capture system
- Seamless integration of tracking into robot/simulation applications - through ROS-compatible interface
