Fully autonomous landing on moving platforms poses a problem of importance for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Current approaches are usually based on tracking and following the moving platform by means of several techniques, which frequently lack performance in real applications. The aim of this paper is to prove a simple landing strategy is able to provide practical results. The presented approach...
In this paper, a fully-autonomous quadrotor aerial robot for solving the different missions proposed in the 2016 International Micro Air Vehicle (IMAV) Indoor Competition is presented. The missions proposed in the IMAV 2016 competition involve the execution of high-level missions such as entering and exiting a building, exploring an unknown indoor environment, recognizing and interacting with objects,...
Personal drones are becoming part of every day life. To fully integrate them into society, it is crucial to design safe and intuitive ways to interact with these aerial systems. The recent advances on User-Centered Design (UCD) applied to Natural User Interfaces (NUIs) intend to make use of human innate features, such as speech, gestures and vision to interact with technology in the way humans would...
