Watch this autonomous microdrone sniff out of gas leak
; other team members came from the University of Barcelona and Harvard University.
Localizing a gas leak involves moving a sensor through the affected area and moving towards higher concentrations of gas. It can be a dangerous and time-consuming task, and industrial sites are already usingthat require a human controller and data analysis tools. A team of several drones working together would be more efficient, but it is difficult for drones of this size to operate in cluttered industrial settings or indoors, due the obstacles and unreliability of GPS.
The drones navigate around a room or other space with a bio-inspired ‘bug algorithm’ that combines random movement with following the line of walls and other obstacles, and distancing themselves from other drones. The drones share data on gas concentrations so they can converge on its source using the Sniffy Bug algorithm. This is highly efficient and able to work in real-time even on the limited processors on the drones.
