Vibration suppression and control of semi-autonomous flying aerial cameras
The current design of the flying aerial cameras has been found to be sensitive to vibrations from motors which affect the payload and the control systems. Improving the camera/video image, flight control quality and the overall stability of the vehicles requires a better understanding of the effects of their vibrations. The goal of this project is to understand the underlying mechanisms affecting vibration of the aerial vehicle in order to find a robust design which is less sensitive to the disturbances during flight. This project is sponsored by Aeryon Labs Inc. in Waterloo.
