Abstract Nitrogen dioxide (NO 2), a hazardous gas with acidic nature, is continuously being
liberated in the atmosphere due to human activity. The NO 2 sensors based on traditional …

Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) networks are playing an important role in various areas due
to their agility and versatility, which have attracted significant attentions from both the …

Executing safe and precise flight maneuvers in dynamic high-speed winds is important for
the ongoing commoditization of uninhabited aerial vehicles (UAVs). However, because the …

Autonomous, agile quadrotor flight raises fundamental challenges for robotics research in
terms of perception, planning, learning, and control. A versatile and standardized platform is …

Develo** and testing algorithms for autonomous vehicles in real world is an expensive
and time consuming process. Also, in order to utilize recent advances in machine …

We address a fundamental issue of collective motion of aerial robots: how to ensure that
large flocks of autonomous drones seamlessly navigate in confined spaces. The numerous …

Event cameras are bioinspired vision sensors that output pixel-level brightness changes
instead of standard intensity frames. These cameras do not suffer from motion blur and have …

Visual inspection has traditionally been used for structural health monitoring. However,
assessments conducted by trained inspectors or using contact sensors on structures for …

We present a novel, deeply embedded robotics middleware and programming environment.
It uses a multithreaded, publish-subscribe design pattern and provides a Unix-like software …

Over the last decade, the use of autonomous drone systems for surveying, search and
rescue, or last-mile delivery has increased exponentially. With the rise of these applications …
