Cooperative systems among various unmanned vehicles are widely used in various field and emerging. Unmanned vehicles are able to operate various missions without operator onboard and they are highly stable. Collaborative work of multiple unmanned vehicles is emphasized due to the difficulty of recent missions such as SEAD (Suppression of the Enemy Air Defenses), MUSIC (Manned Unmanned Systems Integration Capability), goldentime in the rescue mission. In this study, ROS and Pixhawk were proposed as a method of construction of a collaboration system and framework for an integrated simulation environment for heterogeneous unmanned vehicles is proposed. Totally 5 unmanned vehicles were set for the simulation for the observation of illegal fishing boats. This paper shows the feasibility of the cooperative system using ROS and Pixhawk through the simulation and the experiment.

An object color identification and classification embedded system realization for uninhabited stock management is presented in this paper. The embedded system is realized by using ultrasonic sensor to extract the object and distance, and detecting binary image from USB CCD camera. The algorithm is identified by comparing the reference pattern with the color pattern of input image, and move to the settled rack at the store. The experimental result leads to use the uninhibited stock management with practice as a robot.

In this paper, a navigation technology of an unmanned vehicle using relative localization and magnetic guidance is proposed. Magnetic guidance system had been developed as a robust autonomous driving technology as long as magnetic fields on the path are detected. Otherwise, if magnetic fields were not detected due to some reasons, the vehicle could not drive. Therefore, in order to overcome the drawback, we propose that relative localization would be combined to magnetic guidance system. To validate the usefulness of the proposed method, a robotic vehicle was set up with the magnetic guidance system and the relative localization. In addition, the unmanned driving test was realized on the road without the magnetic fields so that the proposed method is verified by the experiment.

In this paper, a global and local flight path system for autonomous flight of the UAV is proposed. The overall system is based on the ROS robot operating system. The UAV in-built computer detects obstacles through 2-D Lidar and generates real-time local path and global path based on VFH and Modified $RRT^*$-Smart, respectively. Additionally, a movement command is issued based on the generated path on the UAV flight controller. The ground station computer receives the obstacle information and generates a 2-D SLAM map, transmits the destination point to the embedded computer, and manages the state of the UAV. The autonomous UAV flight system of the is verified through a simulator and actual flight.

The primary goal of the line tracer is to accurately and quickly detect the movement up to the target position given by the sensor juhaengseon. It has been used in applications in various fields such as the current unmanned transport vehicles, laser cutting machine, autonomous mobile robots and unmanned driving is possible, and is held annually at various universities in the competition field with the possibility of great progress, depending on the application. However, there arises a large difference in running performance, depending on the hardware design and control. In this paper, improving the characteristics of the tracer line and characters to design a PID controller is to apply the point on ways of improving the properties of the system.

In the midst of disaster, such as an earthquake or a nuclear radiation exposure area, there are huge risks to send human crews. Many robotic researchers have studied to send UGVs in order to replace human crews at dangerous environments. So far, two-dimensional camera information has been widely used for teleoperation of UGVs. Recently, three-dimensional information based teleoperations are attempted to compensate the limitations of camera information based teleoperation. In this paper, the 3D map information of indoor and outdoor environments reconstructed in real-time is utilized in the UGV teleoperation. Further, we apply the LTE communication technology to endure the stability of the teleoperation even under the deteriorate environment. The proposed teleoperation system is performed at explosive disposal missions and their feasibilities could be verified through completion of that missions using the UGV with the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) team of Busan Port Security Corporation.

This paper surveys vision based autonomous navigation technologies for unmanned systems. Main branches of visual navigation technologies are visual servoing, visual odometry, and visual simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM). Visual servoing provides velocity input which guides mobile system to desired pose. This input velocity is calculated from feature difference between desired image and acquired image. Visual odometry is the technology that estimates the relative pose between frames of consecutive image. This can improve the accuracy when compared with the exisiting dead-reckoning methods. Visual SLAM aims for constructing map of unknown environment and determining mobile system's location simultaneously, which is essential for operation of unmanned systems in unknown environments. The trend of visual navigation is grasped by examining foreign research cases related to visual navigation technology.
