The goal of this project is to motivate development of control concepts for autonomous munitions that overcome limitations of conventional approaches by applying principles derived from studying the biology of flying organisms. The research is focused on understanding the mechanisms of biological flight thr...
Odin looked grim. “That’s the problem: No one is controlling it. These drones are autonomous-programmed to find and kill their victim, and then to self-destruct. So far it’s been impossible to get a good look at one, much less capture it intact. But we’re working on that last ...
says Guido de Croon, Full Professor at the Micro Air Vehicle laboratory of TU Delft. "The drones' tiny size makes them very safe to any humans and property still in the building, while their flying capability will allow them to eventually search for the source in three...
The autonomous UAV concept implies a power of self-governance in the performance of the control function. In this regard, there is a difference between automatic and autonomous flight control, with the latter presenting a higher degree of reasoning. Automatic flight provides the necessary control to...
Abstract We are witnessing the advent of a new era of robots — drones — that can autonomously fly in natural and man-made environments. These robots, often associated with defence applications, could have a major impact on civilian tasks, including transportation, communication, agriculture, disas...

Autonomous Future for Drones Modern drones almost always feature some level of autonomous flying or at least partially autonomous smart features. There are, however, not that many fully autonomous drones yet. You might still remember the Skydio R1 autonomous drone, which was also released this year...
