Abstract
We present a trajectory tracking controller for a quadrotor unmanned
aerial vehicle (UAV) configured on $SU(2)\times R^3$, and relate this
result to a family of geometric tracking controllers on $SO(3)\times
R^3$. The theoretical results are complemented by simulation examples,
and the controller is subsequently implemented in practice and
integrated with a simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) system
through an extended Kalman filter (EKF). This facilitates the operation
of the UAV without external motion capture systems, and we demonstrate
that the proposed control system can be used for inventorying tasks in a
supermarket environment without external positioning systems.
