Quadrotor control using dual camera visual feedback

چکیده
In this paper, a vision-based stabilization and output tracking control method for a four-rotor helicopter has been proposed. A novel 2 camera method has been described for estimating the full 6 DOF pose of the helicopter. This two camera system is consisting of a pan-tilt ground camera and an onboard camera. The pose estimation algorithm is compared in simulation to other methods (such as four point method, and a stereo method) and is shown to be less sensitive to feature detection errors on the image plane. The proposed pose estimation algorithm and nonlinear control techniques have been implemented on a remote controlled quadrotor helicopter.

Control of a Quadrotor Helicopter Using Dual Camera Visual Feedback
In this paper we propose a vision-based stabilization and output tracking control method for a model helicopter. A novel two-camera method is introduced for estimating the full six-degrees-of-freedom pose of the helicopter. One of these cameras is located on-board the helicopter, and the other camera is located on the ground. Unlike previous work, these two cameras are set to see each other. Th...

This paper presents the development and validation of a vision-based navigation and control system for a small unmanned quadrotor. The core of this system is a state estimator based on the so-called multi-camera parallel tracking and mapping algorithm, which provides accurate pose estimation for the quadrotor using multiple cameras. Built on cascaded proportional-integral-derivative control loo...

Quadrotor control has been noted for its trouble as the consequence of the high maneuverability, system nonlinearity and strongly coupled multivariable. This paper deals with the simulation depend on proposed controller of a quadrotor that can overcome this trouble. The mathematical model of quadrotor is determined using a Newton-Euler formulation. Fractional Order Proportional Integral Derivat...
متن کاملVisual-Inertial Navigation for a Camera-Equipped 25 g Nano-Quadrotor
We present a 25 g nano-quadrotor equipped with a micro PAL-camera and wireless video transmitter, with which we demonstrate autonomous hovering and figure flying using a visual-inertial SLAM system running on a ground-based laptop. To our knowledge this is the lightest quadrotor capable of visual-inertial navigation with off-board processing. Further we show autonomous flight with external pose...
متن کاملControl of a Quadrotor Helicopter using Visual Feedback
We present control methods for an autonomous four-rotor helicopter, called a quadrotor, using visual feedback as the primary sensor. The vision system uses a ground camera to estimate the pose (position and orientation) of the helicopter. Two methods of control are studied one using a series of mode-based, feedback linearizing controllers, and the other using a backstepping-like control law. Va...
