At the same time, robotic competitions are excellent opportunities to engage engineering students and improve their skills, and also end users to adopt the newest technologies. However, the high effort that teams must devote prevents the broad participation of the research community. Thus, this has motivated the arrival of dataset-based competitions in which teams do not need to integrate and operate an actual aerial robotic system. Nevertheless, succeeding in these offline challenges does not ensure that real robots will work as expected, hence limiting the impact of the developments. We propose a comprehensive strategy to maximize team participation by recording and providing real datasets in the same environment where the competitions take place.

A large part of professional drone operations belongs to the specific category, in which authority approval is required to operate. The approval can be applied based on the Specific Operations Risk Assessment, SORA. Based on the risk level determined in SORA, the operation is subject to various safety requirements. Fulfilment of these requirements often calls for the involvement of competent third parties to assess various aspects of the operation. In this paper, we provide a structuring of the needs for third-party involvement in SORA. The study shows that currently there is very limited guidance for performing the third-party assessments or for determining requirements for organizations acting as competent third parties. Such requirements exist in other domains like manned aviation but to enable streamlined regulatory processes for safe drone operations, drone industry specific guidelines are needed. In this paper, we provide examples of standards and regulations that can be used as a basis for further development of the third party assessment procedures.","PeriodicalId":379073,"journal":{"name":"2023 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ICUAS)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124772786","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}

The automated inventory counting problem emerges from the difficulty of managing the products of these large distribution centers. Usually, these centers have long corridors and high shelves with many different products. To solve this problem, this work proposes an approach of a highly-scalable low-cost plug-and-play multirobot system for inventory management. Our approach is composed of a set that includes a micro-drone, an embedded camera module, and a ground mobile robot. In our tests, two situations are analyzed: first with one heterogeneous multirobot system set and a second situation with two heterogeneous multi-robot system sets. The results demonstrate the advantage of having the interconnected multi-robot system to reduce the time of the inventory management task.","PeriodicalId":379073,"journal":{"name":"2023 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ICUAS)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128330308","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}

Even though UASs are smaller and less complex than manned aircraft, Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) aspects are not yet sufficiently considered. In a step towards safer and more autonomous operations of UASs, we intend to develop an Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) for Condition- Based Maintenance. This highly integrated system aims at constantly monitoring the health status of the UAS and at supporting all involved stakeholders. A necessity to IVHM is a vast data gathering process at different points in time as well as at different locations. Multi-stakeholder Digital Twins can achieve this by collecting the necessary data and allowing all stakeholders to base their decisions on the most up-to-date status of their system.

Precisely estimating the battery capacity (State of Charge (SOC)) is still a challenging problem due to many limitations. Prior work assessing battery capacity relies more on the battery’s internal physical model and less on surrounding factors, which makes the accuracy of the estimation of capacity fluctuate under different scenarios. Therefore, we present a cognitive battery management system to empower intelligence in the battery so that it can justify its current capacity and whether it will be enough for the mission and a safe landing. Our system leverages the battery temperature as the essential factor for estimating the capacity during flight. We evaluated our capacity estimation function parameters using the least squares method. Results reveal that battery temperature has a substantial impact on capacity assessment, which perfectly accomplishes the first step toward a cognitive battery management system.","PeriodicalId":379073,"journal":{"name":"2023 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ICUAS)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127087296","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}

One of the most promising solutions to extend drone power autonomy is the use of docking stations to support both landing and recharging of the drone. To this end, we introduce a novel wireless drone docking station with three commercial wireless charging modules. We have developed two independent units, both in mechanical and electrical aspects: the energy transmitting unit and the energy receiving unit. We have also studied the efficiency of wireless power transfer and demonstrated the advantages of connecting three receiver modules connected in series and parallel. We have achieved maximum output power of 96.5 W with a power transfer efficiency of 56.6% for the series connection of coils. Finally, we implemented the system in practice on a drone and tested both energy transfer and landing.","PeriodicalId":379073,"journal":{"name":"2023 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ICUAS)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127193280","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}

This controller has the advantages of: use a continuous control law that eliminates the chattering phenomenon, convergence of states in finite time, good tracking performance and simple structure. Moreover, it is well suited in practice to digital implementation. The dynamics of the proposed system are derived on the basis of Newton-Euler formalism, followed by a robust control method. Lyapunov framework is exploited to ensure the stability of the controlled system. Simulation results of the designed ITSC, are exhibiting the ability of the proposed control technique for rapidly achieving the desired trajectories in a robust manner. A comparative study in both quantitative and qualitative case is carried out between ITSC and Sliding Mode Controller (SMC). Overall, the findings show that the proposed control technique outperforms in terms of accuracy and robustness.","PeriodicalId":379073,"journal":{"name":"2023 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ICUAS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130586555","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 illustrate the approach, we focus on a specific task: a multi-rotor aerial vehicle performing object handovers in a power line setting. The motion planner considers limitations, such as payload capacity and recharging constraints, while ensuring that the trajectories are feasible. Additionally, the method enables users to specify robot behaviors that take into account human comfort (e.g., ergonomics, preferences) while using high-level goals and constraints.

First, it develops novel expressions for the power and energy consumption for a quadrotor with a slung payload flying in 3D. These expressions are called the power and energy quotients, which are directly proportional to the actual power and energy consumption. However, they do not require any prior knowledge of the motor and propeller parameters. Second, a comprehensive energy investigation is conducted to find the effect of polynomial trajectories, cable length, arbitrary kinematic boundary conditions, and number of waypoints on the energy consumption. This analysis has been conducted via two different Monte Carlo simulations. The results showed that increasing the degree of the polynomial trajectory increases the energy consumption and there is an optimal cable length, at which, the energy consumption is minimal. These results are valid regardless of the kinematic boundary conditions, which implies that these results are valid regardless of the number of waypoints. All results have been validated experimentally.","PeriodicalId":379073,"journal":{"name":"2023 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ICUAS)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123150051","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}

The fundamental challenge with indoor localization and navigation is that the Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) signal is either unavailable or not sufficiently accurate for state estimation. uncrewed agents also commonly have to navigate through unstructured environments, which can be challenging given the absence of recognizable landmarks or patterns. Furthermore, in dynamic environments where the layout or obstacles may change frequently, the drone may need to continuously update its state estimations. In the absence of GNSS measurements, uncrewed systems rely on other onboard sensors for localization. However, each set of sensors contains its own associated uncertainty and/or the possibility of occlusion or malfunction. Hence, the design and development of reliable multi-sensor fusion algorithms for localization are deemed necessary. This paper presents the implementation and performance evaluation of an adaptive and robust Moving Horizon Estimator (MHE) for improving the state estimation of a previously developed indoor localization framework using ArUco markers. The effectiveness of the proposed sensor fusion algorithm is evaluated using an experimental setup in comparison to the high-accuracy Vicon ® motion tracking camera system.","PeriodicalId":379073,"journal":{"name":"2023 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ICUAS)","volume":"194 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116147396","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}
