Abstract

Sensor launching is an approach to remote sensor placement which can accurately deploy sensor nodes while maintaining a safe distance from obstacles, making it a promising method for hazardous environments such as nuclear facilities. Moreover, as long as the sensor’s trajectory can be accurately predicted, up to ±5 cm precision can be achieved with little onboard computation and perception. This extended abstract covers a robust method to predict said trajectories and the formulation of an optimal problem to find effective initial launching poses.
