Perception-aware time optimal path parameterization for quadrotors

no code implementations28 May 2020 Igor Spasojevic, Varun Murali, Sertac Karaman

The main contribution of this paper is an efficient time optimal path parametrization algorithm for quadrotors with limited field of view constraints.

FlightGoggles: A Modular Framework for Photorealistic Camera, Exteroceptive Sensor, and Dynamics Simulation

6 code implementations27 May 2019 Winter Guerra, Ezra Tal, Varun Murali, Gilhyun Ryou, Sertac Karaman

While a vehicle is in flight in the FlightGoggles virtual reality environment, exteroceptive sensors are rendered synthetically in real time while all complex extrinsic dynamics are generated organically through the natural interactions of the vehicle.

The Blackbird Dataset: A large-scale dataset for UAV perception in aggressive flight

7 code implementations3 Oct 2018 Amado Antonini, Winter Guerra, Varun Murali, Thomas Sayre-McCord, Sertac Karaman

The Blackbird unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) dataset is a large-scale, aggressive indoor flight dataset collected using a custom-built quadrotor platform for use in evaluation of agile perception. Inspired by the potential of future high-speed fully-autonomous drone racing, the Blackbird dataset contains over 10 hours of flight data from 168 flights over 17 flight trajectories and 5 environments at velocities up to $7. 0ms^-1$.

Utilizing Semantic Visual Landmarks for Precise Vehicle Navigation

no code implementations2 Jan 2018 Varun Murali, Han-Pang Chiu, Supun Samarasekera, Rakesh, Kumar

Experimental evaluations validate that the injection of semantic information associated with visual landmarks using our approach achieves substantial improvements in accuracy on GPS-denied navigation solutions for large-scale urban scenarios
