An Autonomous Quadrotor System for Robust High-Speed Flight Through Cluttered Environments Without GPS

Marc Rigter, Benjamin Morrell, Robert G. Reid, Gene B. Merewether, Theodore Tzanetos, Vinay Rajur +2

IROS 2019poster

Robust autonomous flight without GPS is key to many emerging drone applications, such as delivery, search and rescue, and warehouse inspection. These and other applications require accurate trajectory tracking through cluttered static environments, where GPS can be unreliable, while high-speed, agil…

Differential Flatness Transformations for Aggressive Quadrotor Flight

Benjamin Morrell, Marc Rigter, Gene Merewether, Robert Reid, Rohan Thakker, Theodore Tzanetos +2

ICRA 2018poster

Aggressive maneuvering amongst obstacles could enable advanced capabilities for quadrotors in applications such as search and rescue, surveillance, inspection, and situations where rapid flight is required in cluttered environments. Previous works have treated quadrotors as differentially flat syste…
