  • Abstract
    Progresses in sensor technology, data processing and integrated actuators has made the development of miniature flying robots fully possible. Micro VTOL systems represent a useful class of flying robots because of their strong capabilities for small-area monitoring and building exploration. In this paper we describe the approach that our lab has taken to micro VTOL evolving towards full autonomy, and present the mechanical design, dynamic modelling, sensing, and control of our indoor VTOL autonomous robot OS4.
