“At-large” members: Frank van der Stappen, Katsu Yamane, Henrik Christiansen, Matt Mason, Ruediger Dillman,Satoshi Tadukoro
Aerial Robotics and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
Flying opens new opportunities to robotically perform field services and tasks like search and rescue, observation and mapping. Key areas to be addressed include autonomous missions, localization and multi-vehicle coordination.
Activities:
IEEE Robotics and Automation Magazine Special Issue "Unmanned Aerial Vehicles: Enabling Technologies and Roadmap for Autonomy", Guest Editors: K.P. Valavanis (USF) and G.J. Vachtsevanos (Georgia Tech)
Springer-Verlag Book on UAVs (to be published)
2006 2nd Annual Indoor Aerial Robot Competition, May 7, 2006 - Philadelphia
ICRA 2006:
Full day workshop, “UAVs: Missions and Payloads”
Full day tutorial, “Hands-on Lessons for UAV Construction”
To Join, Contact Paul Oh: paul[at]coe.drexel.edu
Recent Advances
A bipedal jumping and landing robot with artificial musculoskeletal system inspired on an animal has been presented. Experiments showed the abilities of the robot to realize vertical jumping. Reference: R. Niiyama, A. Nagakubo, Y. Kuniyoshi, “Mowgli: A bipedal jumping and landing robot with an artificial musculoskeletal system”, in Proc. of ICRA, pp. 2546-2551, 2007.
field of interest statement
The Society strives to advance innovation, education, and fundamental and applied research in Robotics and Automation. Robotics focuses on systems incorporating sensors and actuators that operate autonomously or semi-autonomously in cooperation with humans. Robotics research emphasizes intelligence and adaptability to cope with unstructured environments. Automation research emphasizes efficiency, productivity, quality, and reliability, focusing on systems that operate autonomously, often in structured environments over extended periods, and on the explicit structuring of such environments
