HUMMINGBIRD Project - Stanford University Hummingbird is a small research helicopter, at Stanford University's aerospace Robotics Laboratory, which navigates using an integration of the Global Positioning System with computer vision. http://sun-valley.stanford.edu/~heli/
Extractions: HUMMINGBIRD Helicopter in autonomous flight. HUMMINGBIRD with ground station GPS antenna. Autonomous helicopters are a promising research area due to their advanced capabilities and great flexibility. Besides having the ability to hover, which allows one to operate in areas unaccessible to other vehicles, an unmanned autonomous helicopter can perform tasks which would be exceedingly difficult or hazardous for a manned vehicle. Possible applications for this technology include close-up inspection of power lines, terrain surveying, search-and-rescue missions, filming movies, and the investigation and clean-up of hazardous waste sites. The ultimate goal of this research at Stanford is to demonstrate the practicality of using inexpensive robot helicopters to perform tasks without the need for highly trained human operators. This research will bring the concept of object-based, task-leve l control to a new and exciting application environment. HUMMINGBIRD is a small autonomous helicopter build by a team at the ARL. It consists of a heavily modified "60 size" remote control model helicopter with a 2.76 cu.in. engine. Navigational sensing is provided entirely by a pair of Trimble Global Positio ning System receivers operating using Differential Carrier Phase calculations. By using four separate antennas, HUMMINGBIRD is able to sense its attitude as well as position with GPS.

Extractions: Welcome to the Department of Engineering A grade 5 RAE department Engineering at Queen Mary has a distinguished tradition in both teaching and research, dating back to the beginning of the 1900s. The Aeronautical Engineering Section was the first to be established in the UK, in 1908, and was also the first to offer an Avionics undergraduate degree course, in 1976. Pioneering research includes developments of advanced computational techniques to predict flow around flying vehicles and advanced computational codes for the design of aerospace structures . This is complemented by experimental aerodynamics using high and low speed wind tunnels . A theme that continues in our cutting edge research in aerodynamics and aerospace structures. Mechanical Engineering is also long-established; its research reputation has been founded on work on thermodynamic principles, such as the energy concept, on combustion and on condensation heat transfer. Medical Engineering is a relatively new undergraduate discipline although we have been at the leading edge of several aspects of medical engineering research; the research focuses on tissue and cell engineering, orthopaedic implants, biofluids and microcirculation and rehabilitation engineering.
