AeROpeBOTICS experiments dataset

This flight dataset, provided by the Technical University of Denmark, comes from flight tests performed at the University of Sevilla during the first and second weeks of September 2025, as part of the AeROpeBOTICS project.

A Variable Stiffness Link (VSL) is proposed from Technical University of Denmark for long-reach aerial manipulation, enabling adaptable mechanical coupling between an aerial multirotor platform and a dual-arm manipulator provided by University of Sevilla. The proposed VSL introduces an adjustable stiffness mechanism that allows the link to behave either as a flexible rope or as a rigid rod, depending on task requirements.

The VSL was tested under external perturbations (impacts, collision, wind) and evaluated its feasibility for package transportation tasks, with and without dual-arms attached.

The dataset comprises 3 folders:

• All bags
  • 7 folders corresponding with 6 days of flight tests 
• plot_data
  • Matlab codes to plot the desired kind of rosbag
• selected bagg
  • Relevant bags from "All bags" folder. Videos of the relevant experiments  - link

Folder names decribe the experiment registered in the rosbags they include.
