We would like to invite you to join this exciting new project as a chapter contributor. Since this is a textbook, a great deal of this chapter entails a survey on the topic under the paradigm of cyber-physical systems, what can be done... more
The increased capabilities and lower cost of Small Unmanned Aerial Systems (SUASs) unveil big opportunities for a rapidly growing number of civilian and commercial applications. For most emerging missions, there is a need for autonomous,... more
Advances in aerospace Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are accelerating the introduction of automated decision making functionalities and the progressive transition to trusted autonomous operations both in civil and military applications.... more
In this work building, dynamic modeling and controller of the quadrotor had been covered for improving performance of quadrotor, basically further working on the motor controller implementation. For the investigation, the prototype design... more
IET indexes its books and journal in SCOPUS and IEEE Xplore. Computer Vision (CV) and Sensors play a decisive role in the operation of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), but there exists a void when it comes to analysing the extent of their... more
Dry Film Thickness (DFT), Surface Profile (SP), Ultrasonic Testing (UT) and other Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) measurements often need to be taken at heights, sometimes utilizing cranes, lifts, scaffolding and ladders. There is new... more
This work presents the modeling and control of a multi-body air vehicle composed of a miniature aerial vehicle (MAV) and mechanical device, a camera positioner, augmented aerial platform which is considered as the logical next framework... more
The phenomenon of quantum entanglement involving two particles has puzzled us for a long time. This article presents some possible solutions.
The figure of the civilian camera drone remains ambiguous and contested. Its promises and perils shape contemporary imaginaries of future mobilities and visualities. Donny the Drone by Mackenzie Sheppard is one example of a fictional... more
One of the main source of danger for people practising activities in mountain environments is avalanches. In the early 70s has been commercialized the first model of avalanche beacon transceiver: a device, composed by a transmitter and a... more
The drone war in Pakistan poses humanitarian, legal, ethical and political challenges. The tactic is controversial and has been condemned by the United Nations' special rapporteur on extrajudicial killings. Yet, polls have shown high... more
We would like to invite you to join this exciting new project as a chapter contributor on one of the topics listed below. Since this is a textbook, a great deal of this chapter entails a survey on the topic under the paradigm of... more
In October 2016, the White House, the European Parliament, and the UK House of Commons each issued a report outlining their visions on how to prepare society for the widespread use of artificial intelligence (AI). In this article, we... more
In this research work, Long Range (LR) radio control system has been developed for an unmanned disaster relief and survey helicopter. The proposed radio control system is developed to overcome the short communication range problems in... more
This paper introduces a new algorithm for estimating the relative pose of a moving camera using consecutive frames of a video sequence. State-of-the-art algorithms for calculating the relative pose between two images use matching features... more
Graceful degradation is an approach for developing dependable safety-critical embedded applications, where redundant active or standby resources are used to cope with faults through system reconfiguration at run-time. Compared to... more
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are versatile machines that can be used in a variety of applications, such as automatic monitoring of crops and water channels, pest detection, animal counting etc. Autonomous flying is a desirable feature... more
