Implementation of Open-Source for Outdoor Multirotors Helicopter


Authored by Sulaiman Sabikan

This paper presents an Open-Source Project (OSPs) platform for autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) that can be implemented in most of the outdoor applications or even in research experimental purposes. The OSP platform is one of the most popular approaches for whose demanding faster and low initial cost platform development in robotics system as well as for aerial vehicles. Besides that, the main reason is their design flexibility in both hardware and software. The explanations in the OSP platform approach and configuration for autonomous flight is presented and applied. This paper also provided several outdoor experiments results in uncontrolled environment that have been executed using our developed test bed to evaluate their performance, such as attitude and altitude stabilization, interference and vibration effect, and 3D trajectory mapping generation. In addition, we has been successfully extended this OSP development approach in preparing six and eight rotors aerial vehicle system. Finally, throughout this project, we have shown and proven that the OPSs platform for outdoor multirotor development promising a flexible solution.

Juniper Publishers - Open Access Journal of Engineering Technology Abstract The present research introduces hydro-morphometric modeling to assess flood hazard vulnerability in old Brahmaputra River Basin in Bangladesh. Hydro-morphometric modeling is a spatial analysis in a GIS environment that has been applied for the estimation of flood hazard vulnerability. In this study the developed methodology processes information of seven parameters namely basin, flow accumulation, flow direction, stream order, stream length, stream density and drainage density. By applying Horton's and Strahler's formula of stream order, stream density and drainage density of old Brahmaputra River Basin are calculated. According to Horton's stream density and drainage density reflects the runoff and discharge status of a basin which also revealed that basin having high stream density and drainage density is most vulnerable to flooding. The old Brahmaputra River Basin subdivide...

Acoustic Shadow Moiré A Solution for 3D Biomedical Imaging - Juniper Publishers

Image
Juniper Publishers - Open Access Journal of Engineering Technology Abstract This article introduces a new 3D imaging technique for biomedical applications. The new technique uses shadow Moiré principles to produce 3D acoustic imaging. Optical shadow Moiré principles have been used in many industrial applications, but the acoustic counterpart has not been seriously investigated. The feasibility of using acoustic shadow Moiré in 3D imaging have been investigated by the author's research group. This review argues that using acoustic shadow Moiré mechanism can provide surface and volumetric 3D biomedical imaging technology with the safety and resolution needed for medical radiology. Keywords: : Shadow Moiré; Acoustic shadow Moiré; 3D imaging; Acoustic imaging; Medical diagnosis Introduction The Moiré effect is a result of the interference between two repetitive structures or images; e.g. grids, gratings, and their shadows. The interference between the ...
