Autonomous Flight of Micro Air Vehicles

This course covers the challenges and existing state-of-the-art methods for enabling autonomous flight of Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs), ranging from 20-gram flapping wings to 1 kg quad rotors. The emphasis is on computationally efficient, bio-inspired approaches to MAV autonomous flight.

The students will apply the theoretical knowledge in the practical assignment, in which student groups program quad rotors to avoid obstacles in TU Delft's Cyberzoo.
