    Cooperative Quadrocopter Ball Throwing and Catching - IDSC - ETH Zurich

    Published on Sep 27, 2012

    This video was produced by the Institute for Dynamic Systems and Control (IDSC) at ETH Zurich, Switzerland. It shows three quadrocopters cooperatively tossing and catching a ball with the aid of an elastic net.

    To toss the ball, the quadrocopters accelerate rapidly outward to stretch the net tight between them and launch the ball up. Notice in the video that the quadrocopters are then pulled forcefully inward by the tension in the elastic net, and must rapidly stabilize in order to avoid a collision. Once recovered, the quadrotors cooperatively position the net below the ball in order to catch it.

    Because they are coupled to each other by the net, the quadrocopters experience complex forces that push the vehicles to the limits of their dynamic capabilities. To exploit the full potential of the vehicles under these circumstances requires several novel algorithms, including:

    1) an optimality-based real-time trajectory generation algorithm for the catching maneuver;

    2) a time-varying trajectory following control strategy to manage the forces on the individual vehicles that are induced by the net; and

    3) learning algorithms that compensate for model inaccuracies when aiming the ball.

    Quadcopter Racing with First Person Video!

    Published on Nov 26, 2014

    We've tested different types of quadcopters before, but have never flown them like this! Norm tags along a meetup of local FPV quadcopter racers--people who build and race mini quads by flying them with first-person video cameras. We learn about how FPV quadcopters work, why they're so much fun to spectate, and witness some unbelievable stunts!

    This autonomous quadcopter has a smartphone for a brain

    Published on Jan 30, 2015

    This drone uses a smartphone for a brain for autonomous flight, using only on-board hardware and vision algorithms, no GPS.
