This article presents a formation control paradigm between an Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) and an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The objective for the UGV is to track the desired trajectory and the UAV coordinates with the UGV for autonomous takeoff and landing.

Nov 28, 2024 · Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) have rapidly evolved, becoming integral to various applications such as environmental monitoring, disaster response, and precision agriculture. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the advancements and the challenges in UAV-UGV collaboration and its potential applications.

Abstract: This paper proposed a framework of cooperative UAV-UGV system. This system consists of three modules: UAV, UGV, and ground station console. It has the characteristics of high cohesion, low coupling, cross platform, and cross language.

Feb 23, 2024 · Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) Systems have increasingly become an integral part of military operations, offering several advantages in combat scenarios. We’ve looked previously at Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) systems and Anti UAV Defense in general plus CUAS Systems for the UAV market in particular but here we focus entirely on UGVs.

Coordination between unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) has received increasing attention in recent years. The list of successful applications of UAV–UGV coordination systems is growing and demonstrates that UAV–UGV coordination can provide real-world solutions that other types of coordination cannot offer.

Jul 1, 2024 · In this work, we introduce a novel approach for a UAV-UGV coalition with a variable number of vehicles, employing a modified mean-shift clustering algorithm (MEANCRFT) to segment targets into multiple zones.

Dec 1, 2024 · This review aims to help researchers studying UAV-UGV collaboration in the context of future industrialized agriculture to identify useful platforms and controls for their applications, and to discuss the technologies that have been studied to develop UAV-UGV collaboration systems.

UAV-UGV teaming approach where the localization of the UAV is delegated to its UGV partner via visual perception, thus alleviating the UAV’s computational burden for localization. This approach not only frees up computational resources for inspection …
