Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Recently unmanned aerial vehicles (UVAs), called Drones and unmanned ground vehicles (UGAs) have been developing rapidly. Acquiring knowledge of these vehicles will be very important for students of a technical college. We have designed an indoor robotic plane for the university education of information engineering departments. Considering safety, an airplane with a 1.3 m span and a 160 g flight weight that can fly within the confines of the general gymnasium was made of soft materials such as expanded polypropylene (EPP). This plane can fly slowly (under 3.0m/sec), and the turning radius is 3.2m. The payload is over 160g sufficient to accommodate a control microcomputer. It would be possible to learn elementary technology based on UVA.
