Intelligent Autonomy of UAVs: Advanced Missions and Future Use
provides an approach to the formulation of the fundamental task
typical to any mission and provides guidelines of how this task can
be solved by different generic robotic problems. As such, this book
aims to provide a systems engineering approach to UAV projects,
discovering the real problems that need to be resolved
independently of the application. After an introduction to the
rapidly evolving field of aerial robotics, the book presents topics
such as autonomy, mission analysis, human-UAV teams, homogeneous
and heterogeneous UAV teams, and finally, UAV-UGV teams. It then
covers generic robotic problems such as orienteering and coverage.
The book next introduces deployment, patrolling, and foraging,
while the last part of the book tackles an important application:
aerial search, tracking, and surveillance. This book is meant for
both scientists and practitioners. For practitioners, it presents
existing solutions that are categorized according to various
missions: surveillance and reconnaissance, 3D mapping, urban
monitoring, precision agriculture, forestry, disaster assessment
and monitoring, security, industrial plant inspection, etc. For
scientists, it provides an overview of generic robotic problems
such as coverage and orienteering; deployment, patrolling and
foraging; search, tracking, and surveillance. The design and
analysis of algorithms raise a unique combination of questions from
many fields, including robotics, operational research, control
theory, and computer science.
