Remote Sensor Emplacement
Using unmanned aircraft systems (UASs) as sensor platforms is a well-studied and well-implemented area. UASs have even been used to place sensors on the ground or in water. However, there are some instances where placing a sensor on top of...
Wetlands Monitoring using UAS
Wetlands are critical to the water cycle, yet they are a difficult environment to safely and effectively monitor. Robot systems have the potential to transform our understanding of complex wetlands systems by not only allowing faster and higher density sensing,...
UAS-Rx Fire Ignitions
Fire is critical for reducing catastrophic wildfires and sustaining ecosystems. Yet the technology to support fire ignition and monitoring remains stagnant. Fire personnel operate under enduring risk in a rapidly evolving context, using drip torches to ignite fires. Alternative forms...
