During last decade the scientific research on Unmanned Aerial Vehicless (UAVs) increased
spectacularly and led to the design of multiple types of aerial platforms. The major challenge …

This paper presents a literature survey on aerial manipulation. First of all, an extensive study
of aerial vehicles and manipulation/interaction mechanisms in aerial manipulation is …

Industry 4.0 has paved the way for a world where smart factories will automate and upgrade
many processes through the use of some of the latest emerging technologies. One of such …

Advances in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), also known as drones, offer unprecedented
opportunities to boost a wide array of large-scale Internet of Things (IoT) applications …

This paper presents a sophisticated vision-aided flocking system for unmanned aerial
vehicles (UAVs), which is able to operate in GPS-denied unknown environments for …

In this paper, a robust decentralized and linear time-invariant controller is proposed for
quadrotors to achieve trajectory tracking. The designed closed-loop control system includes …

This paper aims to provide a clear explanation of the role of the footprint of uncertainty (FOU)
parameters on the control signal generation and, thus, to increase the interpretability of …

The objective of visual servoing aims to control an object's motion with visual feedbacks and
becomes popular recently. Problems of complex modeling and instability always exist in …

This paper is concerned with the coordination control of multiple biomimetic robotic fish in
highly dynamic aquatic environments by building a hybrid centralized system. With the aid of …

The paper proposes a new swarm intelligence-based distributed Model Predictive Control
(MPC) approach for coordination control of multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). First …
