Teleoperation of an unmanned vehicle is a challenging task for human operators especially when the vehicle is not within line of sight. Lack of situational awareness and increased workload due to limited perception channels result in degraded task performance. If these teleoperation missions are human-critical then it becomes more important to improve the operator performance by decreasing workload and improving situational awareness. In this paper, a new teleoperation interface which provides force feedback based on the path generated by an obstacle avoidance algorithm is presented. The purpose of this interface is to overcome the difficulties imposed by limited field of view and lack of situational awareness. Teleoperation tests are performed to verify that haptic feedback generated from the dynamic obstacle information of the environment improves teleoperation performance by supporting the operator and decreasing the workload.

Development of electrical and control system of an unmanned ground vehicle for force feedback teleoperation Hacınecipoğlu, Akif; Konukseven, Erhan İlhan; Koku, Ahmet Buğra; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2012) Teleoperation of an unmanned vehicle is a challenging task for human operators especially when the vehicle is out of line of sight. Improperly designed and applied display interfaces directly affect the operation performance negatively and even can result in catastrophic failures. If these teleoperation missions are human-critical then it becomes more important to improve the operator performance by decreasing workload, managing stress and improving situational awareness. This research aims to develop elect...
Design and evaluation of a helicopter main rotor electrohydraulic control system Düzağaç, Hasan Ali; Çalışkan, Hakan; Balkan, Raif Tuna; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2022-8-26) Helicopters are widely used aircrafts for several purposes. Main Rotor of a Helicopter creates necessary flight forces for performing flight operation. Orientation of a Helicopter Rotor System is determined and controlled manually by pilot and automatically by automatic control system via hydraulically operated flight control actuators. In this research, a novel electrohydraulically operated helicopter main rotor control system is mathematically designed and developed to improve overall performance of contr...
Improvement of routing protocols for unmanned flying ad hoc networks (UFANETS) by using crosslayer metrics Alkış, Oğuz; Ulusoy, İlkay; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2019) Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAV) have been used to perform different type of missions. Many of these civilian and military missions require information exchange between UAVs, which is performed by using routing protocols for wireless ad hoc networks. An efficient routing protocol for unmanned flying ad hoc networks (UFANETs) plays a critical role for data transmission during various applications. In the literature, there are many studies for mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) routing protocols. Due to high mobility ...
Solving the area coverage problem with UAVs: A vehicle routing with time windows variation Semiz, Fatih; Polat, Faruk (Elsevier BV, 2020-4) In real life, providing security for a set of large areas by covering the area with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is a difficult problem that consist of multiple objectives. These difficulties are even greater if the area coverage must continue throughout a specific time window. We address this by considering a Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows (VRPTW) variation in which capacity of agents is one and each customer (target area) must be supplied with more than one vehicles simultaneously without v...
A self-organizing neural network approach for the single AGV routing problem Soylu, M; Özdemirel, Nur Evin; Kayaligil, S (2000-02-15) In this research, a special form of Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) routing problem is investigated. The objective is to find the shortest tour for a single, free-ranging AGV that has to carry out multiple pick and deliver (P&D) requests. This problem is an incidence of the asymmetric traveling salesman problem which is known to be NP-complete. An artificial neural network algorithm based on Kohonen's self-organizing feature maps is developed to solve the problem, and several improvements on the basic featur...
