This book provides an introduction to the emerging field of
planning and decision making for aerial robots. An aerial robot is
the ultimate form of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, an aircraft endowed
with built-in intelligence, requiring no direct human control and
able to perform a specific task. It must be able to fly within a
partially structured environment, to react and adapt to changing
environmental conditions and to accommodate for the uncertainty
that exists in the physical world. An aerial robot can be termed as
a physical agent that exists and flies in the real 3D world, can
sense its environment and act on it to achieve specific goals. So
throughout this book, an aerial robot will also be termed as an
agent. Fundamental problems in aerial robotics include the tasks of
spatial motion, spatial sensing and spatial reasoning. Reasoning in
complex environments represents a difficult problem. The issues
specific to spatial reasoning are planning and decision making.
Planning deals with the trajectory algorithmic development based on
the available information, while decision making determines
priorities and evaluates potential environmental uncertainties. The
issues specific to planning and decision making for aerial robots
in their environment are examined in this book and categorized as
follows: motion planning, deterministic decision making, decision
making under uncertainty and finally multi-robot planning. A
variety of techniques are presented in this book, and a number of
relevant case studies are examined. The topics considered in this
book are multidisciplinary in nature and lie at the intersection of
Robotics, Control Theory, Operational Research and Artificial
Intelligence.
