Grabbing a manoeuvring target using drones is a challenging problem. This paper presents the design, development, and prototyping of a novel aerial manipulator for target interception. It is a single Degree of Freedom (DoF) manipulator with passive basket-type end-effector. The proposed design is energy efficient, light weight and suitable for aerial grabbing applications. The detailed design of the proposed manipulation mechanism and a novel in-flight extending propeller guard, is reported in this paper.

In this paper, we present a novel passive single Degree-of-Freedom (DoF) manipulator design and its integration on an autonomous drone to capture a moving target. The end-effector is designed to be passive, to disengage the moving target from a flyin
g UAV and capture it efficiently in the presence of disturbances, with minimal energy usage. It is also designed to handle target sway and the effect of downwash. The passive manipulator is integrated with the drone through a single Degree of Freedom (DoF) arm, and experiments are carried out in an outdoor environment. The rack-and-pinion mechanism incorporated for this manipulator ensures safety by extending the manipulator beyond the body of the drone to capture the target. The autonomous capturing experiments are conducted using a red ball hanging from a stationary drone and subsequently from a moving drone. The experiments show that the manipulator captures the target with a success rate of 70% even under environmental/measurement uncertainties and errors.
Attaching a robotic manipulator to a flying base allows for significant improvements in the reachability and versatility of manipulation tasks. In order to explore such systems while taking advantage of human capabilities in terms of perception and c
ognition, bilateral teleoperation arises as a reasonable solution. However, since most telemanipulation tasks require visual feedback in addition to the haptic one, real-time (task-dependent) positioning of a video camera, which is usually attached to the flying base, becomes an additional objective to be fulfilled. Since the flying base is part of the kinematic structure of the robot, if proper care is not taken, moving the video camera could undesirably disturb the end-effector motion. For that reason, the necessity of controlling the base position in the null space of the manipulation task arises. In order to provide the operator with meaningful information about the limits of the allowed motions in the null space, this paper presents a novel haptic concept called Null-Space Wall. In addition, a framework to allow stable bilateral teleoperation of both tasks is presented. Numerical simulation data confirm that the proposed framework is able to keep the system passive while allowing the operator to perform time-delayed telemanipulation and command the base to a task-dependent optimal pose.
In this paper, an autonomous aerial manipulation task of pulling a plug out of an electric socket is conducted, where maintaining the stability and robustness is challenging due to sudden disappearance of a large interaction force. The abrupt change
in the dynamical model before and after the separation of the plug can cause destabilization or mission failure. To accomplish aerial plug-pulling, we employ the concept of hybrid automata to divide the task into three operative modes, i.e, wire-pulling, stabilizing, and free-flight. Also, a strategy for trajectory generation and a design of disturbance-observer-based controllers for each operative mode are presented. Furthermore, the theory of hybrid automata is used to prove the stability and robustness during the mode transition. We validate the proposed trajectory generation and control method by an actual wire-pulling experiment with a multirotor-based aerial manipulator.
This paper presents a design of oscillation damping control for the cable-Suspended Aerial Manipulator (SAM). The SAM is modeled as a double pendulum, and it can generate a body wrench as a control action. The main challenge is the fact that there is
only one onboard IMU sensor which does not provide full information on the system state. To overcome this difficulty, we design a controller motivated by a simplified SAM model. The proposed controller is very simple yet robust to model uncertainties. Moreover, we propose a gain tuning rule by formulating the proposed controller in the form of output feedback linear quadratic regulation problem. Consequently, it is possible to quickly dampen oscillations with minimal energy consumption. The proposed approach is validated through simulations and experiments.
Aerial autonomous machines (Drones) has a plethora of promising applications and use cases. While the popularity of these autonomous machines continues to grow, there are many challenges, such as endurance and agility, that could hinder the practical
deployment of these machines. The closed-loop control frequency must be high to achieve high agility. However, given the resource-constrained nature of the aerial robot, achieving high control loop frequency is hugely challenging and requires careful co-design of algorithm and onboard computer. Such an effort requires infrastructures that bridge various domains, namely robotics, machine learning, and system architecture design. To that end, we present AutoSoC, a framework for co-designing algorithms as well as hardware accelerator systems for end-to-end learning-based aerial autonomous machines. We demonstrate the efficacy of the framework by training an obstacle avoidance algorithm for aerial robots to navigate in a densely cluttered environment. For the best performing algorithm, our framework generates various accelerator design candidates with varying performance, area, and power consumption. The framework also runs the ASIC flow of place and route and generates a layout of the floor-planed accelerator, which can be used to tape-out the final hardware chip.
