Towards A Standardized Aerial Platform: ICUAS’22 Firefighting Competition

Abstract This paper presents an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) platform used for the competition held at International Conference Aircraft Systems 2022 (ICUAS’22). The envisioned scenario in is delivering extinguishing ball to a fire with UAV. Driven on that thought, qualifying round of organized realistic simulation environment. competitors are required navigate through cluttered environment into free space, where they perform search target and deliver as close possible target. finals were part conference, same goal qualifiers. UAVs prepared provided by organizers. A detailed description UAV software hardware outlined step towards standardizing aerial research platform.
