This work proposes a filter-based combined terrain map** and landing site selection
system for planetary landing. The authors consider a spacecraft acquiring flash lidar …

In the context of autonomous landing for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), selecting a
suitable landing site is crucial. This research presents a new method for automatically …

Autonomous selection of landing sites is an important capability of a mission when
unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) face technical difficulties or adverse weather, especially in …

To capture and process environmental information, a compact lab-built LiDAR is designed
and constructed. The lab-built LiDAR utilizes a programmable-scanning-pattern image …

This article presents an onboard perception-assisted high-fidelity simulation framework for
autonomous planetary soft-landing, enabling visual information processing tightly integrated …

In this paper, a method for predicting the landing stability of a lunar lander by a classification
map of the landing stability is proposed, considering the soft soil characteristics and the …

In many scenarios it is desirable for planetary landers to select or modify their landing sites
autonomously during descent. We present a landing site selection algorithm which is …
