Optimized Multi-Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Coverage Path Planning for Efficient Solar Panel Cleaning: A Rectilinear and Vehicle Routing Problem-Based Approach Ghaziani, Matin; Yaman, Ulaş; Turgut, Ali Emre (2026-07-01) This study proposes a novel methodology for efficient multi-unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) coverage path planning (CPP) tailored to solar panel cleaning applications. The approach incorporates rectilinear path planning and ...
Towards developing an add-on module to estimate attacker position for unmanned aerial vehicles Bakırcıoğlu, Veli; Şenyayla, Ozan; ARIKAN, KUTLUK BİLGE; Turgut, Ali Emre; Şahin, Erol (2026-06-01) Mini and micro unmanned aerial vehicles (mUAVs), which are often used as “eyes-in-the-sky” in defense applications are often vulnerable to sniper attacks coming from the ground. In this study, we propose an add-on defense ...
Simulation and Control of an Unmanned Lunar Rover at the Moon’s South Pole: Leveraging Challenging Illumination Conditions for Enhanced Exploration Durmaz, Atakan; Güloğlu, Görkem Eğemen; Turgut, Ali Emre; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın; Söken, Halil Ersin; Ankaralı, Mustafa Mert; Üstündaş, Şahin Umutcan; Özduygu, Mete Oğulcan (2025-09-29) This study explores the motion planning and control of a lunar rover designed for exploration at the Moon's south pole. The mission aims to explore permanently shadowed regions believed to contain water ice deposits, ident...
From Walking to Running: A Comprehensive Clock Torque Actuated SLIP Framework for Trotting in Quadrupedal Locomotion Akbaba, Mustafa; Saranlı, Uluç; Turgut, Ali Emre; Ankaralı, Mustafa Mert (2025-08-29) This paper presents a template-based control method for achieving diverse trotting motions in quadrupedal systems, with a focus on smooth transitions between walking trot, regular trot, and flying (running) trot. First, we...
Morphing Swarm Coordination for Autonomous Queen Tracking in Complex Hive Environments Bahaidarah, Mazen; Zahmatkesh, Mohsen; Wang, Hang; Marjanovic, Ognjen; Rekabi-Bana, Fatemeh; Turgut, Ali Emre; Arvin, Farshad (2025-01-01) Interacting with social insects within their natural environments requires robotic systems that are adaptive, precise, and minimally disruptive. Based on the queen tracking framework and swarm coordination algorithm develo...
Towards an Embodied Biohybrid Robotic Platform for Interaction with Honeybees Wang, Hang; Zahmatkesh, Mohsen; Stefanec, Martin; Turgut, Ali Emre; Ulrich, Jiri; Krajnik, Tomas; Arvin, Farshad (2025-01-01) Robotic interaction with insects in a controlled yet unobtrusive manner is essential for advancing research in biology and biohybrid systems. Micro-robots offer a unique opportunity for such interaction due to their small ...
Predictive search model of flocking for quadcopter swarm in the presence of static and dynamic obstacles Önür, Giray; Turgut, Ali Emre; Şahin, Erol (2024-01-01) One of the main challenges in swarm robotics is to achieve robust and scalable flocking, such that large numbers of robots can move together in a coordinated and cohesive manner while avoiding obstacles or threats. Flockin...
Investigations of motor performance with neuromodulation and exoskeleton using leader-follower modality: a tDCS study Okasha, Amr; Şengezer, Saba; Kılınç, Hasan; Pourreza, Elmira; Fincan, Ceren; Yılmaz, Tunahan; Boran, Hürrem E.; Cengiz, Bülent; Yozgatlıgil, Ceylan; Gürses, Senih; Turgut, Ali Emre; Arıkan, Kutluk B.; Ünal, Bengi; Ünal, Çağrı; Günendi, Zafer; Zinnuroğlu, Murat; Çağlayan, Hale Z. B. (2024-01-01) This study investigates how the combination of robot-mediated haptic interaction and cerebellar neuromodulation can improve task performance and promote motor skill development in healthy individuals using a robotic exoske...
Contact Consistent Disturbance Estimation for Quadruped Robots Ozden, Hasan Can; Tanfener, Emre; Orhon, Hasan Eftun; Banus, Omer Tarik; Saranlı, Uluç; Ankaralı, Mustafa Mert; Turgut, Ali Emre (2024-01-01) Quadrupedal locomotion in environments without visual aid presents significant challenges in achieving automation capabilities. Often relying solely on IMU sensors and proprioceptive feedback from motors due to limited vis...
Performance Comparison of Feedback Linearizing and Extended State Observer Based Feedback Linearizing Controllers for an Aerial Manipulation System Bulut, Nebi; Turgel, Fatih; Saylam, Emre; Gezer, Rüştü Berk; Turgut, Ali Emre; ARIKAN, KUTLUK BİLGE (2024-01-01) This paper presents the modeling and design of controllers for an aerial manipulation system that is obtained by combining a quadrotor and a 2-DOF serial manipulator. Throughout the study, firstly, the kinematic model of t...
