Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Action
Collaborated With: Laboratory for Information & Decision Systems
All sorts of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) will be flitting about the Aerospace Controls Lab’s unique flight lab – and you may even get a chance to control one yourself using an Xbox controller. Learn about RAVEN (Real-time indoor Autonomous Vehicle test ENvironment), a unique experimental facility that uses Vicon motion capture sensing to enable rapid prototyping of aerobatic flight controllers for helicopters and aircraft, robust coordination algorithms for multiple helicopters, and vision-based sensing algorithms for indoor flight.
