actuator [1]
noun
a device that produces a motion by converting energy and signals going into the system.
Example: However, polynomial control inputs are smooth and cannot fully exploit the actuator potential, rendering control policies sub-optimal.
ru: актуатор
autonomous [3]
adjective
independent and able to make own decisions.
Example: Heterogeneous teams of mobile robots and UAVs are offering a substantial benefit in an autonomous exploration of the environment.
ru: автономный
computationally [1]
adverb
In a computational manner; Using computation.
Example: While the control task can be solved in real-time, at the current state of the art, generating a feasible, global, time-optimal
trajectory that considers the full quadrotor dynamics, including single-rotor thrust constraints, requires solving a very complex
time allocation problem, which is computationally demanding (in the order of minutes or even hours).
ru: в вычислительном отношении
drone [2]
noun
an aerial vehicle that can be remotely controlled or fly autonomously using programmed software.
Example: Thanks to reduced drone size and weight, researchers can inspect a confined area without direct human contact to minimize ecological footprints.
ru: дрон
hardware [2]
noun
is the physical and electronic parts of a computer or other piece of equipment
Example: This experiment demonstrates the potential of adding high data-load hardware and running more computationally expensive software
on the proposed miniature platform with extra user-defined objectives.
ru: аппаратное обеспечение
localization [2]
noun
the process of determining where a robot is located with respect to its environment.
Example: Except for the proposed trajectory planning, we adopt visual-inertial odometry running on each drone independently for aerial swarm
localization.
ru: локализация
midair [3]
adjective
happening in the air; in the act of flight.
Example: Midair docking of the swarm with a robot arm equipped with a force-sensitive soft gripper is explored by Fedoseev et al.
ru: в воздухе
odometry [2]
noun
is the use of data from motion sensors to estimate change in position over time.
Example: Furthermore, accurate localization using visual-inertial odometry has matured, which has built up a reliable and efficient perception system with probabilistic mapping.
ru: одометрия
perception [1]
noun
the ability of the robot to comprehend the surrounding environment.
Example: Although there are still challenges ahead mainly related to onboard state estimation and perception at high speeds, the proposed controller has proven to be a stable approach to fly very aggressive maneuvers at very high speeds.
ru: восприятие
quadrotor [1]
noun
a type of drone with four rotors.
Example: Quadrotor trajectory planning has been extensively studied in the literature.
ru: квадрокоптер
robot [3]
noun
a machine capable of carrying out a complex series of actions automatically.
Example: In this experiment, the mobile robot is set to a stationary position, and the swarm of drones is launched.
ru: робот
software [2]
noun
is a set of computer programs and associated documentation and data.
Example: We have released the software and hardware necessary to accelerate aerial swarm research, which developers can deploy and use to validate their algorithm from simulations and field environments, all based on our platform.
ru: программное обеспечение
swarm [3]
noun
a great number of some objects.
Example: If the drone in the swarm loses its visual transmission, the other drones support the local positioning and landing of the malfunctioning unit on the moving platform with the supervision of their on-board cameras.
ru: рой
thrust [1]
noun
the amount of upward force that drone can produce when at full throttle.
Example: However, these simplified trajectories lack the notion of 3D
rotation and are dynamically infeasible (since quadrotors are
underactuated systems, they need to rotate to align their thrust
with the desired acceleration direction).
ru: тяга, подъёмная сила
[trajectory] planning [2]
verb
the process of generating a time schedule for how to follow a path given constraints such as position, velocity, and acceleration.
Example: This experiment demonstrates the extensibility of the proposed unified trajectory planning by adding a formation penalty to GPPs.
