We propose a high-level planner for a multirotor to chase a ground vehicle, while simultaneously respecting various state and input constraints. Assuming a minimal kinematic model for the ground vehicle, we use data collected online to generate predictions for our planner within a model predictive control framework. Our solution is demonstrated, both via simulations and experiments on a stable quadcopter platform.

Existing studies for environment interaction with an aerial robot have been focused on interaction with static surroundings. However, to fully explore the concept of an aerial manipulation, interaction with moving structures should also be considered
. In this paper, a multirotor-based aerial manipulator opening a daily-life moving structure, a hinged door, is presented. In order to address the constrained motion of the structure and to avoid collisions during operation, model predictive control (MPC) is applied to the derived coupled system dynamics between the aerial manipulator and the door involving state constraints. By implementing a constrained version of differential dynamic programming (DDP), MPC can generate position setpoints to the disturbance observer (DOB)-based robust controller in real-time, which is validated by our experimental results.
We present a method to autonomously land an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle on a moving vehicle with a circular (or elliptical) pattern on the top. A visual servoing controller approaches the ground vehicle using velocity commands calculated directly in imag
e space. The control laws generate velocity commands in all three dimensions, eliminating the need for a separate height controller. The method has shown the ability to approach and land on the moving deck in simulation, indoor and outdoor environments, and compared to the other available methods, it has provided the fastest landing approach. It does not rely on additional external setup, such as RTK, motion capture system, ground station, offboard processing, or communication with the vehicle, and it requires only a minimal set of hardware and localization sensors. The videos and source codes can be accessed from http://theairlab.org/landing-on-vehicle.
Pivoting gait is efficient for manipulating a big and heavy object with relatively small manipulating force, in which a robot iteratively tilts the object, rotates it around the vertex, and then puts it down to the floor. However, pivoting gait can e
asily fail even with a small external disturbance due to its instability in nature. To cope with this problem, we propose a controller to robustly control the object motion during the pivoting gait by introducing two gait modes, i.e., one is the double-support mode, which can manipulate a relatively light object with faster speed, and the other is the quadruple-support mode, which can manipulate a relatively heavy object with lower speed. To control the pivoting gait, a graph model predictive control is applied taking into account of these two gait modes. By adaptively switching the gait mode according to the applied external disturbance, a robot can stably perform the pivoting gait even if the external disturbance is applied to the object.
This paper proposes a novel framework for addressing the challenge of autonomous overtaking and obstacle avoidance, which incorporates the overtaking path planning into Gaussian Process-based model predictive control (GPMPC). Compared with the conven
tional control strategies, this approach has two main advantages. Firstly, combining Gaussian Process (GP) regression with a nominal model allows for learning from model mismatch and unmodeled dynamics, which enhances a simple model and delivers significantly better results. Due to the approximation for propagating uncertainties, we can furthermore satisfy the constraints and thereby safety of the vehicle is ensured. Secondly, we convert the geometric relationship between the ego vehicle and other obstacle vehicles into the constraints. Without relying on a higherlevel path planner, this approach substantially reduces the computational burden. In addition, we transform the state constraints under the model predictive control (MPC) framework into a soft constraint and incorporate it as relaxed barrier function into the cost function, which makes the optimizer more efficient. Simulation results reveal the usefulness of the proposed approach.
Hybrid unmanned aircraft can significantly increase the potential of micro air vehicles, because they combine hovering capability with a wing for fast and efficient forward flight. However, these vehicles are very difficult to control, because their
aerodynamics are hard to model and they are susceptible to wind gusts. This often leads to composite and complex controllers, with different modes for hover, transition and forward flight. In this paper, we propose incremental nonlinear dynamic inversion control for the attitude and position control. The result is a single, continuous controller, that is able to track the desired acceleration of the vehicle across the flight envelope. The proposed controller is implemented on the Cyclone hybrid UAV. Multiple outdoor experiments are performed, showing that unmodeled forces and moments are effectively compensated by the incremental control structure. Finally, we provide a comprehensive procedure for the implementation of the controller on other types of hybrid UAVs.
