  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. System Identification of a Fixed-Wing UAV Using a Prediction Error Method

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Reglerteknik

    Author : Trulsa Eriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : System identification; Fixed-wing UAV; Modelling; Parameter estimation;

    Abstract : Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is a rapidly expanding area of research due to their versatile usage, such as inspection of places inaccessible to humans and surveillance missions. This creates a demand for a reliable model that can accurately describe the dynamics of the system in order to improve the performance of the vehicle.

  6. 5. Robust Relative Positioning & Autonomous Landing of a Flying Wing MAV for Sea Rescue Applications

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Olle Fagerström Hedbrant; Martin Gemborn Nilsson; [2020]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In this thesis, a study is made into relative positioning and control systems for flying wing Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAVs) intended to be used by the Swedish Sea Rescue Society (SSRS) for the purpose of providing assistance during sea rescue missions. The particular scenario of interest is robust relative positioning to be used for autonomous landing of a MAV on a boat at the end of a rescue mission. READ MORE
