Abstract:
Aerial robots usually operate with dynamic uncertainties, such as with windy considerations, an incorrect inertial model, an unknown payload, and even an actuator failure. In this talk, I will introduce my previous and ongoing research on accurate control of air robots under these uncertainties with Incremental Nonlinear Control (INC) and Model Predictive Control (MPC).
