Abstract:In this paper, we propose a heuristic-based fast motion planning framework which can be readily incorporated by the on-board path planner of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) to generate safe and efficient trajectories while traversing through challenging environments cluttered with obstacles. The proposed planning technique is effective for the scenarios where the exact obstacle locations need to be detected during flight and the obstacle detection range is limited by degraded environmental conditions like fog.… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
