Probabilistic search with agile UAVs
Description | The project has led to the discovery of novel target tracking and search and rescue algorithms using a swarm of UAVs. One of the novel aspects is that multi-robot exploration has been investigated in the presence of connectivity constraints between UAVs. |
Exploitation Route | Some of the proposed algorithms may be of great relevance to search and rescue services and defence applications. |
