From FDCL’s December 14, 2017 announcement.

Evan Kaufman and Kuya Takami conducted flight experiments at the Naval Research Laboratory on autonomous quadrotor exploration and mapping. FDCL shared their video, “Autonomous Quadrotor 3D Mapping and Exploration Using Exact Occupancy Probabilities.”

The demonstration connects probabilistic mapping with aerial exploration. The original announcement provides the video.
