Unauthorized unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) pose threats to public safety and individual privacy. Traditional object-detection approaches often fall short during their application in anti-UAV technologies. To address this issue, we propose the YOLOv...
The runway detection algorithm for fixed-wing aircraft is a hot topic in the field of aircraft visual navigation. High accuracy, high fault tolerance, and lightweight design are the core requirements in the domain of runway feature detection. This pa...
Differences in field of view may occur during unmanned aerial remote sensing imaging applications with acousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF) spectral imagers using zoom lenses. These differences may stem from image size deformation caused by the zoom l...
Aiming at the challenges of clearing tree obstacles along power transmission lines, the control and application of a novel Tree-Obstacle Clearing Coaxial Octocopter with Flexible Suspension Saw (TOCCO-FSS) have been investigated. Firstly, an overall...
This article presents a virtual swashplate mechanism for a mini helicopter in classic configuration. The propeller bases are part of a passive mechanism driven by main rotor torque modulaton, this mechanism generates a synchronous and opposite change...
This study considers the problem of controlling multi-unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to consistently track a non-cooperative ground target with uncertain motion in a hostile environment with obstacles. An active information acquisition (AIA) problem...
Utilizing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as mobile access points or base stations has emerged as a promising solution to address the excessive traffic demands in wireless networks. This paper investigates improving the detector performance at the un...
The heterogeneous unmanned system, which is composed of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and unmanned ground vehicles (UGV), has been broadly applied in many domains. Collaborative fault diagnosis (CFD) among UAVs and UGVs has become a key technology i...
The robotic manta has attracted significant interest for its exceptional maneuverability, swimming efficiency, and stealthiness. However, achieving efficient autonomous swimming in complex underwater environments presents a significant challenge. To...
Loop closure detection is crucial for simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), as it can effectively correct the accumulated errors. Complex scenarios put forward high requirements on the robustness of loop closure detection. Traditional feature...
