The UAV-VLA (Visual-Language-Action) system is a tool designed to facilitate communication with aerial robots. By integrating satellite imagery processing with the Visual Language Model (VLM) and the powerful capabilities of GPT, UAV-VLA enables users to generate general flight paths-and-action plans through simple text requests. This system leverages the rich contextual information provided by satellite images, allowing for enhanced decision-making and mission planning. The combination of visual analysis by VLM and natural language processing by GPT can provide the user with the path-and-action set, making aerial operations more efficient and accessible. The newly developed method showed the difference in the length of the created trajectory in 22% and the mean error in finding the objects of interest on a map in 34.22 m by Euclidean distance in the K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) approach. Additionally, the UAV-VLA system generates all flight plans in just 5 minutes and 24 seconds, making it 6.5 times faster than an experienced human operator.

This paper introduces a safe swarm of drones capable of performing landings in crowded environments robustly by relying on Reinforcement Learning techniques combined with Safe Learning. The developed system allows us to teach the swarm of drones with different dynamics to land on moving landing pads in an environment while avoiding collisions with obstacles and between agents. The safe barrier net algorithm was developed and evaluated using a swarm of Crazyflie 2.1 micro quadrotors, which were tested indoors with the Vicon motion capture system to ensure precise localization and control. Experimental results show that our system achieves landing accuracy of 2.25 cm with a mean time of 17 s and collision-free landings, underscoring its effectiveness and robustness in real-world scenarios. This work offers a promising foundation for applications in environments where safety and precision are paramount.
