  • Abstract
    This paper summarizes the modeling, sensors, network, and user interface of the HoTDeC3 project at the University of Illinois. The current prototype is capable of 2 planar autonomous aerial vehicles hovering on a finely perforated airtable. They communicate sensor and actuation data via a custom wireless/wired network. Complete and up-to-date details can be found on our website: http://legend.me.uiuc.edu/hotdec.
