Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) is a core technology for mobile robot navigation in diverse environments, yet existing Behavior Cloning (BC)-enhanced DRL methods suffer two critical challenges: fixed imitation constraints suppress autonomous exploration in late training stages despite stabilizing …
The Self-Reconfiguring Flight Structure (SRFS), consisting of quadrotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) units, is more functional, but still in its infancy because docking efficiency and security are hardly guaranteed. To obtain SRFS by docking, it is important to generate a safe and efficient traject
This letter introduces a novel reconfigurable modular aerial robot capable of in-air self-disassembly and achieving full-actuation control. The proposed robot utilizes a unique modular design, each module incorporates a vector tilting structure and an active undocking mechanism. The design of the ve
In this paper, we introduce a composable and extensible drone with tilting rotors (CEDTR). We aimed for a function that could optimally match the load capacity, degree of freedom (DOF), speed and endurance with diverse mission requirements by changing the quantity and form of combinations. First, we…
