Abstract
This paper presents the underlying theoretical developments and successful experimental demonstrations of perching of an aerial robot. The open-loop lateral-directional dynamics of the robot are inherently unstable because it lacks a vertical tail for agility, similar to birds. A unique feature of this robot is that it uses wing articulation for controlling the flight path angle as well as the heading. New guidance algorithms with guaranteed stability are obtained by rewriting the flight dynamic equations in the spatial domain rather than as functions of time, after which dynamic inversion is employed. It is shown that nonlinear dynamic inversion naturally leads to proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers, thereby providing an exact method for tuning the gains. The effectiveness of the proposed bio-inspired robot design and its novel closed-loop perching controller has been successfully demonstrated with perched landings on a human hand.
