A technical guide to autonomous aerial robots for inspection and infrastructure work

Focused on the Aerial Robotic Worker (ARW), this volume maps the components behind autonomous flying systems designed to assist human operations. It moves from hardware and software into modeling, control, environmental perception, aerial manipulation, and coordination among multiple robotic workers. Practical deployment remains central: the book includes direct applications, examples based on commercially available platforms, sample code, and ROS-based tutorials. The coverage connects core robotics concepts with the operational challenges of robots that inspect and interact with surrounding infrastructure.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Robotics and autonomous-systems students
  • Engineers developing aerial inspection or infrastructure-interaction systems
  • Practitioners seeking ROS-based examples and sample code

Book overview

Aerial Robotic Workers: Design, Modeling, Control, Vision and Their Applications provides an in-depth look at both theory and practical applications surrounding the Aerial Robotic Worker (ARW). Emerging ARWs are fully autonomous flying robots that can assist human operations through their agile performance of aerial inspections and interaction with the surrounding infrastructure. This book addresses all the fundamental components of ARWs, starting with the hardware and software components and then addressing aspects of modeling, control, perception of the environment, and the concept of aerial manipulators, cooperative ARWs, and direct applications.

The book includes sample codes and ROS-based tutorials, enabling the direct application of the chapters and real-life examples with platforms already existing in the market.
