Overview

Estimating the motion of a landing deck, and controlling the descent of a drone under severe weather events is a challenging task. We have developed a simulation environment to test control and prediction algorithms that could allow a drone to safely land on a ship. This PhD program involves the investigation of innovative predictive control approaches closely linked with predictors that provide T secs ahead the future position of the landing deck.
