Obtaining Liftoff Indoors: Autonomous Navigation in Confined Indoor Environments

Authors:

S. Shen, Nathan Michael, and V. Kumar

Abstract:

In this article, we consider the problem of autonomous navigation with a microaerial vehicle (MAV) in three-dimensional (3-D) confined indoor environments with multiple floors. We present experimental results with ground truth comparisons and performance analysis. We also highlight field experiments in multiple environments.
