RAPID: Aerial Robots for Remote Autonomous Exploration and Mapping

RAPID: Aerial Robots for Remote Autonomous Exploration and Mapping

Kumar Lab is interested in exploring the possibility of leveraging an autonomous quadrotor in earthquake-damaged environments through field experiments that focus on cooperative mapping using both ground and aerial robots. Aerial robots offer several advantages over ground robots, including the ability to maneuver through complex three-dimensional (3D) environments and gather data from vantages inaccessible to ground robots.
