  1. 1. Optimering av flyghastighet för flygplan

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Louise Larsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Aircraft flight speed; flight operations; speed optimization; Cost Index; ECON speed; Flyghastighet; flygverksamhet; hastighetsoptimering; kostindex; ekonomisk hastighet;

    Abstract : Optimization of flight operations is a way to reduce the impact of aviation on the environment and make the use of airspace more effective. Reductions in fuel consumption and flight time are further desired by airlines to minimize operational costs. READ MORE

  3. 2. Deep Learning Model Deployment for Spaceborne Reconfigurable Hardware : A flexible acceleration approach

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

    Author : Javier Ferre Martin; [2023]
    Keywords : Space Situational Awareness; Deep Learning; Convolutional Neural Networks; FieldProgrammable Gate Arrays; System-On-Chip; Computer Vision; Dynamic Partial Reconfiguration; High-Level Synthesis; Rymdsituationstänksamhet; Djupinlärning; Konvolutionsnätverk; Omkonfigurerbara Field-Programmable Gate Arrays FPGAs ; System-On-Chip SoC ; Datorseende; Dynamisk partiell omkonfigurering; Högnivåsyntes.;

    Abstract : Space debris and space situational awareness (SSA) have become growing concerns for national security and the sustainability of space operations, where timely detection and tracking of space objects is critical in preventing collision events. Traditional computer-vision algorithms have been used extensively to solve detection and tracking problems in flight, but recently deep learning approaches have seen widespread adoption in non-space related applications for their high accuracy.

  6. 5. Drones for Sea Rescue: Lab and Field Experiments on Camera Gimbal Control

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Alexander Sandström; [2023]
    Keywords : Drones; Search and Rescue; Unmanned Aerial Vehicle; UAV; gimbal; camera control; ArduPilot; Quality of Experience; QoE; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The objective of this thesis has been to improve the camera controls of a fixed-wing drone to be used in maritime search-and-rescue operations by the Swedish Sea Rescue Society (SSRS). A gimbal control interface (GCI) has been implemented that displays the video feed of the drone camera while taking control inputs from a joystick that moves its view in real-time. READ MORE
