An Experimental Study of Wind Resistance and Power Consumption in MAVs with a Low-Speed Multi-Fan Wind System

ICRA 2022poster

This paper discusses a low-cost, open-source and open-hardware design and performance evaluation of a low-speed, multi-fan wind system dedicated to micro air vehicle (MAV) testing. In addition, a set of experiments with a flapping wing MAV and rotorcraft is presented, demonstrating the capabilities…

FAITH: Fast Iterative Half-Plane Focus of Expansion Estimation Using Optic Flow

RA-L 2021

Course estimation is a key component for the development of autonomous navigation systems for robots. While state-of-the-art methods widely use visual-based algorithms, it is worth noting that most fail to deal with the complexity of the real world. They often require obstacles to be highly textured

Neuromorphic control for optic-flow-based landing of MAVs using the Loihi processor

ICRA 2021poster

Neuromorphic processors like Loihi offer a promising alternative to conventional computing modules for endowing constrained systems like micro air vehicles (MAVs) with robust, efficient and autonomous skills such as take-off and landing, obstacle avoidance, and pursuit. However, a major challenge fo…

Obstacle Avoidance onboard MAVs using a FMCW Radar

IROS 2021poster

Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs) are increasingly being used for complex or hazardous tasks in enclosed and cluttered environments such as surveillance or search and rescue. With this comes the necessity for sensors that can operate in poor visibility conditions to facilitate with navigation and avoidance…

A novel insect-inspired optical compass sensor for a hexapod walking robot

IROS 2017poster

In an outdoor autonomous navigational context, classic compass sensors such as magnetometers have to deal with unpredictable magnetic disturbances. In this paper, we propose to get inspiration from the insect navigational abilities to design a celestial compass based on linear polarization of ultrav…
