The increasing popularity of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles has led to heightened demand for their ability to interact with the environment along with the large flight envelopes. In this letter, we propose a new spatial symmetric fully actuated multirotor (FAM) that is capable of achieving fast, smooth at
In this letter, we propose a model predictive control (MPC)-based robot pose controller for our newly designed wheeled bipedal robot (WBR). The proposed controller uses the virtual model control concept, allowing for wider applicability by ignoring the leg dynamics. By directly incorporating the non
The active SLAM problem considered in this paper aims to plan a robot trajectory for simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) as well as for an area coverage task with robot pose uncertainty. Based on a model predictive control (MPC) framework, these two problems are solved respectively by diffe…
