Aerial manipulation using a quadrotor with a two DOF robotic arm 论文

摘要

This paper presents aerial manipulation using a quadrotor with a two-DOF robot arm. By considering a quadrotor and robot arm as a combined system, the kinematic and dynamic models are developed, and an adaptive sliding mode controller is designed. With the controller, an autonomous flight experiment is conducted including picking up and delivering an object, which requires accurate control of a quadrotor and robot arm. Overall result shows that the proposed approach demonstrates satisfactory performance as a potential platform which can be utilized in various applications such as inspection, manipulation, or transportation in remote places.
