Active Control & SLAM

arXiv Preprint 2026

AWARE is a human-in-the-loop active control framework for improving LiDAR-inertial odometry on resource-constrained UAVs in feature-sparse environments. The key idea is to exploit whole-body yaw rotations through an RL-guided differentiable MPC controller, enabling the UAV to actively seek informative viewpoints while preserving flight safety and operator intent.

Adaptive Underground Meshing

arXiv Preprint 2025

ARMOR is a scene-adaptive framework for real-time 3D meshing in unexposed environments such as tunnels, caves, and lava tubes. The key idea is to jointly optimize geometry reconstruction and parameter tuning with spatio-temporal smoothing and reinforcement learning, enabling robust online meshing under diverse and unstructured scene conditions.

Underground Meshing

ISPRS-Annals 2024 Oral

NeRF-based Localization and Meshing is a wearable framework for real-time localization and mesh reconstruction in complex underground environments. The key idea is to couple LiDAR-inertial odometry with a scan-block representation that synchronizes poses and sequential laser frames, enabling efficient NeRF-based meshing with improved local accuracy.
