On-Board Relative Bearing Estimation for Teams of Drones Using Sound

Dario Floreano, Felix Stephan Schill, Meysam Basiri

In a team of autonomous drones, individual knowledge about the relative location of teammates is essential. Existing relative positioning solutions for teams of small drones mostly rely on external systems such as motion tracking cameras or GPS satellites ...

Muscle Moment-Arms: A Key Element in Muscle-Force Estimation

Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Philippe Müllhaupt, Christoph Anselm Engelhardt, David Ingram

A clear and rigorous definition of muscle moment-arms in the context of musculoskeletal systems modelling is presented, using classical mechanics and screw theory. The definition provides an alternative to the tendon excursion method, which can lead to inc ...

Accurate Indoor Localization with Ultra-Wideband using Spatial Models and Collaboration

Alcherio Martinoli, Amanda Stella Markowska Prorok

Ultra-wideband (UWB) localization is a recent technology that performs competitively with many indoor localization methods currently available. Despite its desirable traits, such as potential high accuracy and high material penetrability, the resolution of ...

Generalized Method of Wavelet Moments for Inertial Navigation Filter Design

Jan Skaloud, Stéphane Guerrier, Yannick Stebler

The integration of observations issued from a satellite-based system (GNSS) with an inertial navigation system (INS) is usually performed through a Bayesian filter such as the extended Kalman filter (EKF). The task of designing the navigation EKF is strong ...

Managing Evolving Uncertainty in Trajectory Databases

Saket Sathe, Ho Young Jeung

Modern positioning technologies enable collecting trajectories from moving objects across different locations over time, typically containing time-varying measurement errors of positioning systems. Unfortunately, current models on uncertain trajectories ar ...

Development and integration of high straightness flexure guiding mechanisms dedicated to the METAS watt balance Mark II

Reymond Clavel, Florent Cosandier

There is a firm will in the metrology community to redefine the kilogram in the International System of units by linking it to a fundamental physical constant. The watt balance is a promising way to link the mass unit to the Planck constant h. At the Feder ...
