1. 1. 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

3. 2. Flying Wing Drone Impact Study

   University essay from KTH/Flygdynamik

   Author : Sara Nilsson; [2021]
   Keywords : Flying wing drone; Regulations; Risk assessmen; Mathematical modeling; Material properties; Flygande vinge; regelverk; riskbedömning; matematisk modellering; materialegenskaper;

   Abstract : The Swedish Sea Rescue Society (SSRS) is exploring how small, remotely launched drones can help in making the rescue work safer and more efficient. The planned drone to be used for such purposes is a 1 kg, 1 m wide, foam constructed, flying wing drone. READ MORE

4. 3. Design of a drone system for maritime search and rescue missions

   University essay from KTH/Flygdynamik

   Author : Emil Pettersson; [2020]
   Keywords : Sea Rescue; Drone; Flying Wing; Blended Wing Body; SAR; Tailless; BWB; XFLR5; Search and Rescue; Drönare; Flygande Vinge; Sjöräddning; Eftersök; XFLR5;

   Abstract : The work summarized in this report aims to investigate how a drone airplane design can be optimized to create a safer and more efficient sea rescue by providing staff with an early picture, performing search missions and aiding communication through visual contact. A flying wing is in theory one of the most efficient designs for a fixed wing aircraft, at the same time as it also offers high structural efficiency for its given size. READ MORE

5. 4. Robust control system development forVTOL-to-fixed wing flight transition withthe EcoSoar UAV : A masters thesis in Automatic Control

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

   Author : Robert Hedman; [2020]
   Keywords : drone; UAV; thesis; automatic; control; VTOL;

   Abstract : A non switching, non linear, quaternion based attitude P2 controller, together with a sensitivitynormalizing function for the control surfaces has been simulated and implemented on a flying fixedwing with non vectored engines. In simulations the controller worked well in all flight modes,hovering, transition and flying, and also rejected a simple wind disturbance in all modes. READ MORE
