Intelligent unmanned systems: theory and applications

The book covers multi-faceted aspects of intelligent unmanned systems. A widearray of relevant theory and applications are presented to address the current and future challenges in the area of unmanned systems. The book largely represents the extended version of select papers from the International Conferenceon Intelligent Unmanned System ICIUS 2007 which was jointly organized by the Center for Unmanned System Studies at Institut Teknologi Bandung, Artificial Muscle Research Center at Konkuk University and Institute of Bio-inspired Structure and Surface Engineering, Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics. The joint-event was the 3rd conference extending from International Conference on Emerging System Technology (ICEST) in 2005 and International Conference on Technology Fusion (ICTF) in 2006 both conducted in Seoul. ICIUS 2007 was focused on both theory and application primarily covering the topics on robotics, autonomous vehicles and intelligent unmanned technologies.
