1. 1. Control barrier function-enabled human-in-the-loop control for multi-robot systems : Centralized and distributed approaches

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

   Author : Victor Nan Fernandez-Ayala; [2022]
   Keywords : Multi-robot systems; Human-in-the-loop control; Control barrier functions; Safety constraints; ROS Implementation; Multirobotsystem; Human-in-the-loop-kontroll; Kontrollera barriärfunktionerna; Säkerhetsbegränsningar; ROS-implementering;

   Abstract : Autonomous multi-robot systems have found many real-world applications in factory settings, rescue tasks and light shows. Albeit these successful applications, the multi-robot system is usually pre-programmed with limited flexibility for online adaptation. READ MORE

3. 2. Benchmarking VisualInertial Odometry Filterbased Methods for Vehicles

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

   Author : Muhammad Zahid; [2021]
   Keywords : visual inertial odometry; VIO; sensor fusion; state estimation; recursive filter; navigation; autonomous vehicles; visuell tröghetsodometri; VIO; sensorfusion; tillståndsuppskattning; rekursivt filter; navigering; autonoma fordon;

   Abstract : Autonomous navigation has the opportunity to make roads safer and help perform search and rescue missions by reducing human error. Odometry methods are essential to allow for autonomous navigation because they estimate how the robot will move based on the available sensors. READ MORE

4. 3. MULTI-DRONE COLLABORATION FOR SEARCH AND RESCUE MISSIONS

   University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

   Author : Patrik Forsslund; Simon Monié; [2021]
   Keywords : robotics; drone; multi-drone; robot; drones; collaborative; collaboration; ros; robot operating system; agent; subsumption; airsim; simulation; layer; behaviour; layers; behaviours; missing; sar; search and rescue; search; rescue; task allocation; task; tasks; automation; quadrotor; quadcopter; uav; unmanned aerial vehicle; unmanned; vehicle; mission; missions; experiment; experiments; navigation; suppressor; inhibitor;

   Abstract : Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), also called drones, are used for Search And Rescue (SAR) missions, mainly in the form of a pilot manoeuvring a single drone. However, the increase in labour to cover larger areas quickly would result in a very high cost and time spent per rescue operation. READ MORE

5. 4. Comparison of autonomous waypoint navigation methods for an indoor blimp robot

   University essay from KTH/Mekatronik

   Author : Lukas Prusakiewicz; Simon Tönnes; [2020]
   Keywords : UAV; indoor airship; blimp; path planning; reinforcement learning; RRT; autonomous navigation; UAV; inomhus luftskepp; blimp; path planning; förstärkningsinlärning; RRT; autonom navigering;

   Abstract : The Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) has over the last years become an increasingly prevalent technology in several sectors of modern society. Many UAVs are today used in a wide series of applications, from disaster relief to surveillance. A recent initiative by the Swedish Sea Rescue Society (SSRS) aims to implement UAVs in their emergency response. READ MORE

6. 5. Improved Sensor Planning in Binaural Probabilistic Active SoundLocalisation for Robots

   University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

   Author : Arvid Norlander; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Sensor planning in the field of active robot sound localisation is an important topic that has potential applications for robots interacting with crowds, search and rescue and more, though the field is currently at the level of basic research. This thesis presents novel improvements that theoretically increase the accuracy of the predictions used in probabilistic sensor planning for sound localisation. READ MORE
