Agent-Based Control Of A Flapping Wing Micro Aerial Vehicle, Michal Podhradský
Student Research Symposium
Flapping wing micro aerial vehicles (FWMAVs) are biomimetic vehicles, because they imitate insects in the way they fly. FWMAVs are very small and highly manoeuvrable and can be used in reconnaissance, environmental monitoring, search & rescue, and other applications. The goal of the project is to develop & verify an agent based flight controller for FWMAV that can adapt to different flight conditions, actuator failures, and different vehicles while delivering constant performance. Agent based control was successfully applied in industry and distributed applications, but to our best knowledge never in an actual flying vehicle. Agent based control utilizes machine learning, …
