Research abstract
Triton Systems, Inc. and its partners propose a lightweight, flexible, rugged, and modular energy harvesting power system for micro-UAV applications. This concept utilizes commercial, off-the-shelf technology and microprocessor-based power management to provide photovoltaic-based regenerative power for micro-UAVs in a ‘fly’ and ‘perch’ mission profile. In the Phase I, Triton will demonstrate the system in flight on a subscale platform. In the Phase II, Triton will work with our partner to produce a full-scale prototype of the power system and demonstrate its functionality.
