Tracking and Relative Localization of Drone Swarms With a Vision-Based Headset

Dario Floreano, Fabrizio Schiano, Maxim Pavliv, Giuseppe Loianno

We address the detection, tracking, and relative localization of the agents of a drone swarm from a human perspective using a headset equipped with a single camera and an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU). We train and deploy a deep neural network detector o ...

Does spontaneous motion lead to intuitive Body-Machine Interfaces? A fitness study of different body segments for wearable telerobotics

Dario Floreano, Fabrizio Schiano, Matteo Macchini

Human-Robot Interfaces (HRIs) represent a crucial component in telerobotic systems. Body-Machine Interfaces (BoMIs) based on body motion can feel more intuitive than standard HRIs for naive users as they leverage humans’ natural control capability over the ...

Predictive control of aerial swarms in cluttered environments

Dario Floreano, Fabrizio Schiano, Enrica Soria

Classical models of aerial swarms often describe global coordinated motion as the combination of local interactions that happen at the individual level. Mathematically, these interactions are represented with potential fields. Despite their explanatory suc ...

Distributed Predictive Drone Swarms in Cluttered Environments

Dario Floreano, Fabrizio Schiano, Enrica Soria

Recent works in aerial robotics show that the self-organized and cohesive flight of swarms can emerge from the exchange of purely local information between neighboring agents. However, most of the current swarm models are not capable of flight in densely c ...
