Stanford computer scientists have developed an artificial intelligence system that enables robotic helicopters to teach themselves to fly difficult stunts by watching other helicopters perform...
The Stanford Autonomous Helicopter performing a maneuver known as "Chaos". In this maneuver, the helicopter flips over in place repeatedly while simultaneously pirouetting about its...
Autonomous blade CX-3 helicopter following a RC car. The CX-3 is controlled using 6DOF measurements from a motion capture system (Opti-track). The heli follows the...
Autonomous helicopter learning to hover from scratch. Assuming linear dynamics model, but with unknown parameter values initially. I also give the computer the trim control...
Helicopters can't usually handle slopes steeper than 20 degrees - new software makes these ones flip backwards to land at 60 degrees More - technology.newscientist.com...
The Stanford Autonomous Helicopter performing power-off descent and landing under computer control. Helicopters can glide and land in a flight mode known as "autorotation" without...
