Autonomous and coordinated operations of a nanosatellite with a robot on Earth

摘要

The design of nanosatellites is improving rapidly and with the pass of time, their functions are expanding even further, allowing more capabilities as well as new functions. Not only that, if the nanosatellites coordinate with other instruments, which could be others nanosatellites or even bigger satellites, or robots on Earth, these devices show a great potential to increase the fields for applications, such as weather monitoring, topographic analysis of an area, etc. In this work, we study that possibility, taking as basis the development of software capable to coordinate the telemetry received from a drone to operate a robot on ground.
