Robotic Airships
Airships are a favorable type of flying vehicles when it comes to automatic control. They continue operation even if their control system fails for a short time. They remain in the air due to the buoyant force. On the other hand, an airship as a control plant has a number of features that should considered during the synthesis of control laws.
Our institute has completed seven projects creating control systems for airships of various designs in collaboration with the leading enterprises of Europe and China.
