On average, a performance of 35ms is achieved in a frame-to-frame process where visual features are extracted in between two images, organised in a database model, sought and matched. For this process to be efficient, we employed binary descriptors, namely ORB descriptors, for rapid feature extraction and fast matching based on the hamming distance, and hash tables as descriptor organisation model where keys for hashing are extracted directly from bit segments of the binary descriptor. By combining these two strategies, we managed to speed up feature matching by 8 times compared to the standard binary descriptor-based feature matching using FLANN in OpenCV. As a result we obtain a rapid image mosaicing, which enables the exploration of the area to be mapped at higher speed of the aerial vehicle.","PeriodicalId":299104,"journal":{"name":"2017 Workshop on Research, Education and Development of Unmanned Aerial Systems (RED-UAS)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134338608","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

D. de Sousa","doi":"10.1109/RED-UAS.2017.8101634","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/RED-UAS.2017.8101634","url":null,"abstract":"The use of multiple heterogeneous, low-cost, small Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) as a tool in several application domains is becoming increasingly important. One critical aspect to enable the use of such vehicles is the coordination/planning system, whose task complexity increases with the number of vehicles and the communications constraints that arise due to their small size and large distances. In this work, we propose a control architecture for a platoon of relay UAVs that are independent of the coordination system. The platoon task consists in interconnecting the communication link between the possibly mobile command station and a UAV in a mission. The relays are actively driven to deploy, create a network and maintain a desired Quality-of-Service (QoS) level, defined in this paper. We present an architecture that is composed by a waypoint generator based on the network QoS and a Time Coordinated Path Following (TCPF) controller with a method to reduce the frequency of information exchange between the relay UAVs, through the use of a self-triggered control strategy. Exploiting this architecture, it is possible to plan a mission operation for a UAV without the need of considering vehicle-to-command-station communication constraints that will be satisfied by the introduction of the relay-UAVs platoon. Simulation results are provided to illustrate the efficacy of the developed strategy. The self-triggered approach results in significant reduction of information exchange between the relay UAVs, while maintaining the user desired network QoS.","PeriodicalId":299104,"journal":{"name":"2017 Workshop on Research, Education and Development of Unmanned Aerial Systems (RED-UAS)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134138579","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, the landing zone is localised via image processing in a frame-to-frame basis. Images are captured by the MAV's onboard camera of the MAV and processed with a multi-scale image processing strategy to detect the landing zone at different scales.

A new concept for the regulation is proposed, compared to existing worldwide regulations. Moreover, the Cloud framework and the proposed RPAS are described. The Cloud framework should be intended to be an automated system for path planning and control of RPAS flying under its coverage, and not limited to remotely control RPAS by pilots.

Metric monocular SLAM and colour segmentation for multiple obstacle avoidance in autonomous flight 自主飞行中多障碍物避障的度量单目SLAM和颜色分割

The latter, however, utilises images captured from a monocular camera onboard the MAV, hence pose and map can be only obtained up to a scale factor. To address this, we incorporate metric via fixating the MAV's height and its onboard camera angle, which is set at 30 degrees in downwards direction to the floor. This enabled us to obtain a depth image of the floor observed by the camera that can be recorded only once and passed to a RGB-Depth SLAM system. Thus, MAV's pose can be estimated with metric, which is then considered into the avoidance rules. We carried out 36 flights with an 86 % of successful flights with no collisions, where obstacles were placed in different settings. Our approach is intended to solve one of the missions in the Indoors Category of the International Micro Air Vehicles Conference and Flight Competitions (IMAV) 2017, but we are certain that our approach could be extended to more general scenarios.","PeriodicalId":299104,"journal":{"name":"2017 Workshop on Research, Education and Development of Unmanned Aerial Systems (RED-UAS)","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128226594","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To increase the robustness and reliability in coverage and tracking tasks using multiple Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), several criteria must be taken into consideration, like safe separation between the vehicles and complete area coverage based on their on board sensors. In this context, we propose a guidance strategy where initially a straight line path between previously calculated waypoints for coverage tasks is calculated. Then, for each next turn of the vehicle, a goal point is chosen in order to minimize a deviation error from the straight line path and the current position of the vehicle. In order to calculate this point, an offline lookup table is created, which correlates the underlying control model with the turn angles; during flight, the best value is chosen for each next turn. The algorithm has been tested in different scenarios and against a robust simulation framework by the means of Software-in-the-Loop (SITL). The results show that this strategy manages to provide a computationally inexpensive method for the goal points of the pure pursuit algorithm and minimizes the deviation from the straight line trajectories of the waypoint planning.","PeriodicalId":299104,"journal":{"name":"2017 Workshop on Research, Education and Development of Unmanned Aerial Systems (RED-UAS)","volume":"12 8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120853812","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
