Spring 2021
There is a growing trend of using unmanned aerial vehicles (also known as UAVs, uncrewed aerial vehicles, or drones) to manipulate and interact with their surroundings. The algorithms and tools used are typically unique to the different tasks performed by UAVs; however, the fundamental UAV system...

Optimal Motion Planning in GPS-Denied Environments using Nonlinear Model Predictive Horizon
DownloadSpring 2023
Navigating robotic systems autonomously through unknown, dynamic, and GPS-denied environments is a challenging task. One requirement of this is a path planner which provides safe trajectories under real-world conditions such as nonlinear vehicle dynamics, real-time computation requirements,...
