Detail of the student project

List
Topic:Fully Actuated UAVs and their Outdoor Applications
Department:Katedra kybernetiky
Supervisor:Nicolas Staub, Ph.D.
Announce as:Diplomová práce, Semestrální projekt
Description:In the past couple of years the community interest for fully actuated aerial vehicle grew steadily, fostered by projects focused on aerial physical interactions.
Nowadays only a handful of labs have working prototypes, mostly indoor.
The field is still in its infancy and many research topics are open, in particular outdoor flight with or without physical interactions are particularly promising and unexplored.
The domain to be explored comprise, but are not limited, to mechatronic design, planning techniques, sensor fusion, localization, control for physical interaction, estimation of external wrench, external wrench classification and swarming behavior.
Requirements: nonlinear control theory, estimation techniques, C/C++, Python, ROS, Matlab
Responsible person: Petr Pošík
