Abstract
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have made huge progress in military and civilian missions, ranging from surveillance, reconnaissance, to logistics and transportation. Particularly, to meet requirements of high-demand applications, it is necessary to develop advanced unmanned systems that are capable of autonomously navigating in cluttered indoor and outdoor GPS-denied environments, such as hostile buildings, radiation contaminated areas and forest.
In this talk, we aim to report some recent research activities related to unmanned aerial systems conducted by the UAV Research Group at National University of Singapore. Topics on the development of micro aerial vehicles, unconventional aircraft, multiple UAVs formation will also be highlighted.
