Globally optimal event-based divergence estimation for ventral landing
Event sensing is a major component in bio-inspired flight guidance and control systems. We
explore the usage of event cameras for predicting time-to-contact (TTC) with the surface …

[PDF][PDF] Reinforcement learning for spacecraft maneuvering near small bodies
We use neural reinforcement learning to control a spacecraft around a small celestial body
whose gravity field is unknown. The small body is assumed to be a triaxial ellipsoid and its …
