Autonomous Drone Landing using Deep Reinforcement Learning
(Master thesis, 2020)Landingsproblemet har lenge vært et omdiskutert forskningstema i reguleringsteknikkmiljøet. Et flertall av utviklede systemer har vært sterkt avhengig av omfattende modellering av den kontrollerte prosessen før man utnytter ... -
Autonomous Drone with Object Pickup Capabilities
(Master thesis, 2016)The objective with this project was to create an autonomous drone with the capability to pick up, and deliver an object, without any human interference. This is an continuation of the work done during the pre-project. The ... -
Autonomous environmental monitoring probe for aquaculture sites
(Master thesis, 2012)This project aims to develop an instrument that is capable of moving vertically in a controlled manner along a taut string from the sea surface to a predetermined depth while measuring pertinent seawater parameters. The ... -
Autonomous Exploration and General Visual Inspection of Ship Ballast Water Tanks using Aerial Robots
(Chapter, 2023)This paper presents a solution for the autonomous exploration and inspection of Ballast Water Tanks (BWTs) of marine vessels using aerial robots. Ballast tank compartments are critical for a vessel's safety and correspond ... -
Autonomous Flow-Through RGB and Hyperspectral Imaging for Unmanned Surface Vehicles
(Journal article, 2023)The process of collecting samples for traditional microscopic analyses can be costly and time-consuming. We present the design of an autonomous flow-through imaging (AFTI) system tailored for small unmanned surface vehicles ... -
Autonomous Icing Protection Solution for Small Unmanned Aircraft: An Icing Detection, Anti-Icing and De-Icing Solution
(Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2016:275, Doctoral thesis, 2016)This monograph is motivated by the lack of an autonomous icing protection solution for small unmanned aerial vehicles. The atmospheric phenomenon commonly referred to as aircraft icing is one the most dangerous weather ... -
Autonomous inspection and maintenance missions with AI planning and the ROSPlan framework
(Master thesis, 2023)Etterspørselen etter automatiserte løsninger er stadig økende i nesten alle aspekter av den moderne verden. Industrisektoren har alltid vært i tidlig ute med automatisering, og med dagens avansert databehandling og kunstig ... -
Autonomous Inspection of Wind Turbines and Buildings using an UAV
(Master thesis, 2014)This thesis describes the use of optical flow and Hough transform in local navigation,particularly the case of inspecting wind turbines and buildings for damages. The goal isto create an observer capable of estimating the ... -
