Wake Characteristics of a Free-Flying Quadrotor Hovering in Uniform and Shear Inflows The wake of a free-flying small quadrotor (DJI NEO) was measured under still air, uniform inflow, and vertical- and horizontal-shear inflow at the exit of an open-circuit wind tunnel. Sensor Tracking Velocimetry (STV) using the ProCap system combined a multi-hole probe with optical […]

Real-time Sensor Tracking Velocimetry (STV): Opportunities and challenges with a human in the loop (HITL) A comparison of Sensor Tracking Velocimetry (STV) with a Human in the Loop (HITL) with stereoscopic Particle Image Velocimetry (stereo PIV) data for a generic wind tunnel setup is presented. In STV, the human in the loop plays a central […]
