Accurate estimation and prediction of trajectory is essential for interception of any high speed target. In this paper, an extended Kalman filter is used to estimate the current location of target from its visual information and then predict its future position by using the observation sequence. Target motion model is developed considering the approximate known pattern of the target trajectory. In this work, we utilise visual information of the target to carry out the predictions. The proposed algorithm is developed in ROS-Gazebo environment and is verified using hardware implementation.

This paper presents the design, development, and testing of hardware-software systems by the IISc-TCS team for Challenge 1 of the Mohammed Bin Zayed International Robotics Challenge 2020. The goal of Challenge 1 was to grab a ball suspended from a mo ving and maneuvering UAV and pop balloons anchored to the ground, using suitable manipulators. The important tasks carried out to address this challenge include the design and development of a hardware system with efficient grabbing and popping mechanisms, considering the restrictions in volume and payload, design of accurate target interception algorithms using visual information suitable for outdoor environments, and development of a software architecture for dynamic multi-agent aerial systems performing complex dynamic missions. In this paper, a single degree of freedom manipulator attached with an end-effector is designed for grabbing and popping, and robust algorithms are developed for the interception of targets in an uncertain environment. Vision-based guidance and tracking laws are proposed based on the concept of pursuit engagement and artificial potential function. The software architecture presented in this work proposes an Operation Management System (OMS) architecture that allocates static and dynamic tasks collaboratively among multiple UAVs to perform any given mission. An important aspect of this work is that all the systems developed were designed to operate in completely autonomous mode. A detailed description of the architecture along with simulations of complete challenge in the Gazebo environment and field experiment results are also included in this work. The proposed hardware-software system is particularly useful for counter-UAV systems and can also be modified in order to cater to several other applications.
Selective interception of objects in unknown environment autonomously by UAVs is an interesting problem. In this work, vision based interception is carried out. This problem is a part of challenge 1 of Mohammed Bin Zayed International Robotic Challen ge, 2020, where, balloons are kept at five random locations for the UAVs to autonomously explore, detect, approach and intercept. The problem requires a different formulation to execute compared to the normal interception problems in literature. This work details the different aspect of this problem from vision to manipulator design. The frame work is implemented on hardware using Robot Operating System (ROS) communication architecture.
The flapping-wing aerial vehicle (FWAV) is a new type of flying robot that mimics the flight mode of birds and insects. However, FWAVs have their special characteristics of less load capacity and short endurance time, so that most existing systems of ground target localization are not suitable for them. In this paper, a vision-based target localization algorithm is proposed for FWAVs based on a generic camera model. Since sensors exist measurement error and the camera exists jitter and motion blur during flight, Gaussian noises are introduced in the simulation experiment, and then a first-order low-pass filter is used to stabilize the localization values. Moreover, in order to verify the feasibility and accuracy of the target localization algorithm, we design a set of simulation experiments where various noises are added. From the simulation results, it is found that the target localization algorithm has a good performance.
Estimating and reacting to external disturbances is of fundamental importance for robust control of quadrotors. Existing estimators typically require significant tuning or training with a large amount of data, including the ground truth, to achieve s atisfactory performance. This paper proposes a data-efficient differentiable moving horizon estimation (DMHE) algorithm that can automatically tune the MHE parameters online and also adapt to different scenarios. We achieve this by deriving the analytical gradient of the estimated trajectory from MHE with respect to the tuning parameters, enabling end-to-end learning for auto-tuning. Most interestingly, we show that the gradient can be calculated efficiently from a Kalman filter in a recursive form. Moreover, we develop a model-based policy gradient algorithm to learn the parameters directly from the trajectory tracking errors without the need for the ground truth. The proposed DMHE can be further embedded as a layer with other neural networks for joint optimization. Finally, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method via both simulation and experiments on quadrotors, where challenging scenarios such as sudden payload change and flying in downwash are examined.
Model predictive control (MPC) is widely used for path tracking of autonomous vehicles due to its ability to handle various types of constraints. However, a considerable predictive error exists because of the error of mathematics model or the model l inearization. In this paper, we propose a framework combining the MPC with a learning-based error estimator and a feedforward compensator to improve the path tracking accuracy. An extreme learning machine is implemented to estimate the model based predictive error from vehicle state feedback information. Offline training data is collected from a vehicle controlled by a model-defective regular MPC for path tracking in several working conditions, respectively. The data include vehicle state and the spatial error between the current actual position and the corresponding predictive position. According to the estimated predictive error, we then design a PID-based feedforward compensator. Simulation results via Carsim show the estimation accuracy of the predictive error and the effectiveness of the proposed framework for path tracking of an autonomous vehicle.
