Modular Autonomous Capability for Landing on Uncooperative Vehicles (MACLUV)

GreenSight (GS) proposes Modular Autonomous Capability for Landing on Uncooperative Vehicles (MACLUV), a modular system for enabling a wide range of VTOL unmanned aircraft to land and takeoff autonomously from moving non cooperative targets. GS, GSÆs PI and consultants have industry leading experience across multiple decades developing various autonomous landing, recovery and takeoff systems for both cooperative and uncooperative landing scenarios on USVs, wires, ground vehicles, docking stations and drone charging hives. GSÆs MACLUV approach uses a combination of reinforcement learning coupled with stereo vision and 3D reconstruction to reliably and precisely plan and execute a landing trajectory to a user specified landing location on the non cooperative target. GS has both the software experience to execute this project as well as commercialized hardware systems to build a low SWaPC system that can be easily integrated with existing and future VTOL SUAS which require this capability.
