The proposed work consists of further improving the mechatronics platform, dynamics modeling, and flight control system of the blimp. The mechatronics will have reduced response time, higher sensing capability, and more onboard computational power. The full 6-DOF dynamics model of the blimp will be identified, unveiling the unknown coupling between translational and rotational aerodynamics of the robot. The flight control system will also be updated to handle the coupled 6-DOF dynamics of the blimp.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Modeling and Control of Indoor Miniature Autonomous Blimps"}],"uid":"28475","created_gmt":"2019-04-16 19:21:35","changed_gmt":"2019-04-16 19:21:35","author":"Daniela Staiculescu","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2019-04-24T11:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2019-04-24T13:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2019-04-24T13:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2019-04-24 15:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2019-04-24 17:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2019-04-24 17:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"434371","name":"ECE Ph.D. Proposal Oral Exams"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"102851","name":"Phd proposal"},{"id":"1808","name":"graduate students"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
