A complete mathematical model of an aerial robot consisting of rotorcraft UAV body and a generic multiple degree of freedom manipulator is derived and presented. Previously developed control scheme utilizing both the rotor speed control and centroid vectoring through the mid-ranging approach is augmented with a standard position control loop. The proposed control approach is tested and verified in manual and autonomous flight experiments. We present the results of centroid vectoring control on a trajectory tracking example alongside which we provide comparison with state-of the-art approaches.","PeriodicalId":426616,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ICUAS)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121486941","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}

A recognized mitigation of this risk is a failsafe system that in the event that the sUAS is unable to maintain stable flight, terminates the flight and activates an emergency parachute. This paper proposes a methodology for assessment of Commercial Off the Shelf parachutes for sUAS failsafe systems. The methodology encompasses the evaluation criteria for the selection of parachutes based on a user-defined Maximum Takeoff Weight and the failure scenario tests for assessment of reliability and efficiency. The current standard specification on parachutes for sUAS published by the American Society of Testing and Materials has inspired the failure scenario tests. These failure scenario tests consist of a bench/destructive test and a full power cut test. The multirotor used for test of the proposed methodology is a ∼ 2kg hexarotor. The results suggests the use of one specific parachute. Furthermore, the deployment time and impact energy have been estimated to be 1.2s and 21J, respectively. This impact energy suggests a probability of fatality of less than 0.01. This work is the first step towards selecting and evaluating parachute systems for sUAS. The proposed next steps are the refinement of the assessment of parachutes and increase of parachutes included in the failure scenario tests. Additionally, this will lead to the development of parachute recovery systems for sUAS with manual and autonomous triggering.","PeriodicalId":426616,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ICUAS)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127504683","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}

We assume all states can be measured, such that the primary goal of the filter is not the state estimation from the measurements, but the accurate reconstruction of the multirotor dynamics in real-time. Numerical simulations show the proposed diagnostic filter can be used to estimate the magnitude of the actuator faults accurately. Furthermore, based on simulated and real data recorded during a hexacopter UAV flight when its actuators experiencing complete failure, the experiment results demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.","PeriodicalId":426616,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ICUAS)","volume":"63 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133637698","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}

Deep convolutional network have shown a great potential for tasks like object detection and have been continuously improved in the last years. Still, the amount of training data is large and their generation can be complex and time consuming, especially if the appearance of the detected object is not clearly specified. The concept presented here is to train a deep convolutional neural network just with a few two dimensional images of unmanned aerial vehicle to simplify the process of generating training data. Performance of the trained network is evaluated with data from real experimental flights and compared with hand-labeled ground truth data to validate the correctness. To cover situations when the classifier fails at the detection, the output is integrated in a image processing pipeline for object tracking in order to establish a continuous tracking.","PeriodicalId":426616,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ICUAS)","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117252103","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}

In particular, a red-colored hemispherical inflated air-bag (dome) has been considered as the visual cue in this paper. Moment-based shape descriptor called Hu-moments are leveraged for accurate detection of the dome. Characterization of these moments with horizontal and vertical distance of the UAV from the dome that is used to reliably detect the dome even at large distances is performed using software experiments. The proposed algorithm needs only a monocular camera and a processing unit on-board and hence is cost-effective and also applicable in GPS-denied environments. The proposed algorithm is simulated in a combined environment of V-Realm builder and MATLAB. Simulation results are presented to validate the presented algorithm for autonomous landing. This algorithm is also easily extendable to different colors and shapes of 3D structures.","PeriodicalId":426616,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ICUAS)","volume":"119 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116612735","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 address this limitation of existing urban models, this paper presents two urban modeling techniques for an unmanned aircraft flight simulation in an urban environment. The first proposed urban modeling technique is an airborne LiDAR source-based approach that incorporates machine learning algorithms to identify the number of buildings and characterize them from the LiDAR information. The second proposed urban modeling technique is an artificial urban modeling technique without any airborne LiDAR resources that applies an adaptive spacing method, an iterative algorithm to define an artificial urban environment. Unlike the LiDAR source-based approach that creates an approximated urban model, the adaptive spacing-based urban modeling algorithm generates an artificial urban environment that is visually different from a reference city, but has similar the characteristics to it. To demonstrate the two proposed urban modeling techniques, numerical simulations are conducted using open-source datasets to construct several realistic urban models.","PeriodicalId":426616,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ICUAS)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128405723","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}
