UAVs and Autonomous Systems

What are UAV Autonomous Systems?

UAV Autonomous Systems, or Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Autonomous Systems, are aircraft that can operate without a human pilot on board. They are typically remotely controlled or can be programmed to operate autonomously using GPS and other sensors.

UAV Autonomous Systems have become increasingly popular due to their ability to perform a wide range of tasks, including aerial photography, mapping, surveying, agriculture, and search and rescue missions. They can also be used for military operations and surveillance.

UAV Autonomous Systems come in a variety of shapes and sizes, from small hobbyist drones to large industrial-scale aircraft. They are equipped with a range of sensors and cameras, allowing them to capture high-resolution images and video footage from the air.

Overall, UAV Autonomous Systems offer a safe, efficient, and cost-effective alternative to traditional manned aircraft for a wide range of applications. However, their use is subject to various regulations and restrictions, and it is essential to operate them responsibly and safely to avoid accidents and potential privacy violations.

UAVs and Autonomous Systems Research @ ACPS Research Group

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have become increasingly popular in recent years, due to their ability to perform a variety of tasks in a safe, efficient, and cost-effective manner. Here are some emerging research areas in UAVs. Autonomous Navigation in Complex Environments: Autonomous navigation involves enabling UAVs to navigate and avoid obstacles without human intervention. ACPS research group focuses on developing advanced algorithms and sensors that can improve the accuracy and reliability of autonomous navigation in complex environments. Swarms: UAV swarms involve coordinating multiple UAVs to perform complex tasks such as search and rescue, surveillance, and delivery. ACPS research group focuses on developing swarm algorithms that can enable effective coordination and communication among UAVs, while maintaining safety and efficiency. Remote Sensing: Remote sensing involves using UAVs to collect data about the environment, such as temperature, humidity, air quality, and vegetation. ACPS research group focuses on developing advanced sensors and data analysis techniques that can enable more accurate and efficient remote sensing. Disaster Response: UAVs can be used for disaster response to provide situational awareness, search and rescue, and delivery of supplies. ACPS research group focuses on developing UAVs that can operate in harsh environments, such as high winds, rain, and smoke. Security and Surveillance: UAVs can be used for security and surveillance applications, such as border patrol, monitoring critical infrastructure, and crowd control. ACPS research group focuses on developing UAVs that can operate autonomously, detect and track targets, and provide real-time information to security personnel.
