The aerial manipulator is a new type of aerial robot with active operation capability, which is composed of a rotary-wing drone and an actuator. Although aerial manipulation has greatly increased the scope of robot operations, the research on aerial manipulators also faces many difficulties, such as the selection of aerial platforms and actuators, system modeling and control, etc. This article attempts to collect the research team’s Achievements in the field of aerial robotic arms. The main results of the aerial manipulator system and corresponding dynamic modeling and control are reviewed, and its problems are summarized and prospected.

“…Similarly to continuum manipulators mentioned in the previous section, researchers have also looked to other areas of nature to inspire manipulating mechanisms for which evolution has proved to be successful. One such study, from Zhao et al, took inspiration from wasp-pedal-carrying behaviour [Zhao et al, 2018]. They developed a deformable UAV that could perform morphological adaptation in response to environmental changes as shown in Figure 9.…”

Autonomous aerial delivery vehicles have gained significant interest in the last decade. This has been enabled by technological advancements in aerial manipulators and novel grippers with enhanced force to weight ratios. Furthermore, improved control schemes and vehicle dynamics are better able to model the payload and improved perception algorithms to detect key features within the unmanned aerial vehicle's (UAV) environment. In this survey, a systematic review of the technological advancements and open research problems of autonomous aerial delivery vehicles is conducted. First, various types of manipulators and grippers are discussed in detail, along with dynamic modelling and control methods. Then, landing on static and dynamic platforms is discussed. Subsequently, risks such as weather conditions, state estimation and collision avoidance to ensure safe transit is considered. Finally, delivery UAV routing is investigated which categorises the topic into two areas: drone operations and drone-truck collaborative operations.

SUMMARYThe aerial manipulator is a special and new type of flying robot composed of a rotorcraft unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and a/several manipulator/s. It has gained a lot of attention since its initial appearance in 2010. This is mainly because it enables traditional UAVs to conduct versatile manipulating tasks from air, considerably enriching their applications. In this survey, a complete and systematic review of related research on this topic is conducted. First, various types of structure designs of aerial manipulators are listed out. Subsequently, the modeling and control methods are introduced in detail from the perspective of two types of typical application cases: free-flight and motion-restricted operations. Finally, challenges for future research are presented.
