Robust Active-Perception Control for Global-State-Free Aerial-Ground Cooperation

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 22, 2026 · UTC

Aerial-ground cooperation requires real-time UAV--UGV relative-state information. Instead of maintaining global estimates for both robots, direct control in a UGV-attached non-inertial frame avoids reliance on global localization. Vision-based relative pose estimation with a passive marker offers a low-cost and effective solution. However, a fixed camera may lose sight of the moving UGV when the required UAV attitude conflicts with the field-of-view (FOV) constraint. To address this, we propose COPA, a robust active-perception framework for global-state-free aerial-ground cooperation. We use a
