Fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are used in several applications from agriculture to search and rescue. An interesting feature of these vehicles is their ability to deploy by hand and easy recovery with belly landing. However, as the payload of the vehicle increases, they become heavier, and hence these vehicles need to be launched in the traditional manner on a small runway with wheels...
Recently there is a number of scenarios such as vehicle platooning, UAV swarms and cooperative robots, where a group of autonomous entities needs to make joint decisions to operate effectively. Distributed agreement protocols can play a key role to establish a common view on context parameters and to coordinate joint actions. Due to the harsh environmental conditions in some of these scenarios and...
Massive investment in 'intelligent' vehicle technologies is going to turn autonomous vehicles into reality in a few years. The insertion of this intelligence at the road vehicles is expected to cause a reduction in traffic accidents due to the mitigation of human drivers errors and imperfections by computerized autopilots. However, autonomous vehicles shall mitigate the existing hazards at the roadway...
In this paper, we study the cause of out-of-sequence measurements (OOSM) and their effect on Kalman filter based multi-sensor fusion systems. We explore the current available solutions for handling of OOSM and pinpoint how the absence of precise measurement timestamps does not allow the correct chronological order of sensor measurements. The processing of such, out-of-order measurements, leads to...
The use of over-the-air updates has attracted very much interest these last few years with the software-intensive development of embedded systems in the car industry. The development of autonomous driving and ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) renders over-the-air updates mandatory, for both user satisfaction and economic reasons. How to make sure that remote updates of critical ADAS do not...
Modern vehicles are opening up, with wireless interfaces such as Bluetooth integrated in order to enable comfort and safety features. Furthermore a plethora of aftermarket devices introduce additional connectivity which contributes to the driving experience. This connectivity opens the vehicle to potentially malicious attacks, which could have negative consequences with regards to safety. In this...
