Summary

Robotics has a growing impact on our everyday life. Traditional applications are complemented by the integration of robots in the human environment. With the availability of low cost sensors, aerial robotics also became an active area of research. However, many of the practical challenges associated to the real time control of robotic systems are not yet resolved. Control of these systems requires methods that are able to reliably estimate variables of interest while compensating for sensor limitations and disturbances; and achieve the desired control objective in spite of limitations and significant changes in the model due to external effects.
