Abstract :
The LaBRI has recently deployed a swarm of communicating UAVs called SCUAL (Swarm of Communicating UAVs at LaBRI) in cooperation with the Fly-n-Sense company. The goal of this paper is to present this testbed, how and why it has been set up, and to give an overview of the research activities carried around this platform. It also explains how this swarm is made available to the community as a testbed for UAVNets.
