  1. 31. The Future of Warehouse Automation: Will Drones Ever Take Off?

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk logistik

    Author : Filip Axén; Idun Jerlhagen Forsgren; [2023]
    Keywords : Autonomous drones; UAV; Warehousing; Technology adoption; Delphi study; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Background: In recent years, manually controlled drones have taken off on the commercial market, as well as in the agricultural industry and in humanitarian logistics. This has increased the interest in investing in autonomously controlled drones to increase efficiency and reduce costs. READ MORE

  3. 32. Developing a Geographical Information System for a water and sewer network, for monitoring, identification and leak repair - Case study: Municipal Water Company of Naoussa, Greece

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Konstantinos Sourlamtas; [2023]
    Keywords : Water and sewer network; GIS; UAV; surveying; photogrammetry; orthophoto; geodatabase; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : This thesis presents the design and implementation of a Geographic Information System (GIS) for the Naoussa Municipality Water and Sewer Company for better water utility management. The methodology contained field data collection like the valves, sewer manholes, hydrometers, and hydrants in two ways, UAV photogrammetry, and traditional surveying, the georeferencing process, photogrammetric processing, the digitization of old paper maps and the geodatabase design.

    Abstract : This project presents a motion planning algorithm for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV).UAVs have become more popular in recent years because of their maneuverability. This has causedthe need for motion planning algorithms to increase. READ MORE

  5. 34. Optimization-Based Path Planning For Indoor UAVs in an Autonomous Exploration Framework

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Marco Cella; [2023]
    Keywords : Optimal Path Planning; B-Splines; Autonomous Exploration; Indoor UAV; Crisis and Disaster Management; Trajectory Estimation; SITL; Optimal Banplanering; B-Splines; Autonom Utforskning; Inomhus-UAV; Kris- och Katastrofhantering; Uppskattning av Banor; SITL;

    Abstract : Exploration is a fundamental problem in robotics that requires robots to navigate through unknown environments to autonomously gather information about their surroundings while executing collision-free paths. In this project, we propose a method for producing smooth paths during the exploration process in indoor environments using UAVs to improve battery efficiency and enhance the quality of pose estimation.
