1. Nagori, Chinmay. Unmanned Aerial Manipulators in Construction - Opportunities and Challenges.

Degree: MS, Civil Engineering, 2020, Virginia Tech

Drones or Unmanned Aerial Manipulators have been used in the construction industry to collect visual data in form of images, videos, or to map surveys, and visually inspect the structures. However, if equipped with a robotic arm, they attain the capability of touching and interacting with the environment to effectively function as an Unmanned Aerial Manipulator (UAM). UAMs have researched for various applications such as sensor installation, touch-based sensor inspections, door opening, and closing, and pick up and drop, etc. However, there is a lack of study for their opportunities and challenges in the construction industry. This research focuses on understanding the opportunities and challenges associated with the application of UAMs in the construction industry. Advisors/Committee Members: Afsari, Kereshmeh (committeechair), Jazizadeh Karimi, Farrokh (committee member), Gao, Xinghua (committee member).

Subjects/Keywords: aerial manipulation; construction; aerial robots; drones
