Training Efficient Controllers via Analytic Policy Gradient

Dario Floreano, Valentin Wüest, Davide Scaramuzza

Control design for robotic systems is complex and often requires solving an optimization to follow a trajectory accurately. Online optimization approaches like Model Predictive Control (MPC) have been shown to achieve great tracking performance, but requir ...

Microgravity induces overconfidence in perceptual decision-making

Davide Scaramuzza, Christian Pfeiffer, Leyla Loued-Khenissi

Does gravity affect decision-making? This question comes into sharp focus as plans for interplanetary human space missions solidify. In the framework of Bayesian brain theories, gravity encapsulates a strong prior, anchoring agents to a reference frame via ...

EKLT: Asynchronous Photometric Feature Tracking Using Events and Frames

Davide Scaramuzza

We present EKLT, a feature tracking method that leverages the complementarity of event cameras and standard cameras to track visual features with high temporal resolution. Event cameras are novel sensors that output pixel-level brightness changes, called “ ...

Challenges and implemented technologies used in autonomous drone racing

Davide Scaramuzza, Titus Cieslewski, Guido De Croon, Shuo Li

Autonomous drone racing (ADR) is a challenge for autonomous drones to navigate a cluttered indoor environment without relying on any external sensing in which all the sensing and computing must be done with onboard resources. Although no team could complet ...

How Fast Is Too Fast? The Role of Perception Latency in High-Speed Sense and Avoid

Davide Scaramuzza

In this letter, we study the effects that perception latency has on the maximum speed a robot can reach to safely navigate through an unknown cluttered environment. We provide a general analysis that can serve as a baseline for future quantitative reasonin ...

2019

Event cameras are bio-inspired sensors that work radically different from traditional cameras. Instead of capturing images at a fixed rate, they measure per-pixel brightness changes asynchronously. This results in a stream of events, which encode the time, ...

VIMO: Simultaneous Visual Inertial Model-Based Odometry and Force Estimation

Davide Scaramuzza

In recent years, many approaches to visual-inertial odometry (VIO) have become available. However, they neither exploit the robot's dynamics and known actuation inputs, nor differentiate between the desired motion due to actuation and the unwanted perturba ...

The current state and future outlook of rescue robotics

Dario Floreano, Auke Ijspeert, Roland Siegwart, Stefano Mintchev, Kamilo Andres Melo Becerra, Davide Scaramuzza, Tomislav Horvat, Marco Hutter

Robotic technologies, whether they are remotely operated vehicles, autonomous agents, assistive devices, or novel control interfaces, offer many promising capabilities for deployment in real‐world environments. Postdisaster scenarios are a particularly rel ...

The Foldable Drone: A Morphing Quadrotor That Can Squeeze and Fly

Dario Floreano, Stefano Mintchev, Davide Scaramuzza

The recent advances in state estimation, perception, and navigation algorithms have significantly contributed to the ubiquitous use of quadrotors for inspection, mapping, and aerial imaging. To further increase the versatility of quadrotors, recent works i ...

Graph Chatbot

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
