Autonomous Landing for a Multirotor UAV Using Vision
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe our work on multirotor UAVs and focus on our method for autonomous landing. The paper describes the design of our landing pad and its advantages. We explain how the landing pad detection algorithm works and how the 3D-position of the UAV relative to the landing pad is calculated. Practical experiments prove the quality of these estimations.

Autonomous Recovery of a Fixed-Wing UAV Using a Net Suspended by Two Multirotor UAVs
This article presents a novel recovery method for fixed-wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), aimed at enabling operations from marine vessels. Instead of using the conventional method of using a fixed net on the ship deck, we propose to suspend a net under two cooperative multirotor UAVs. While keeping their relative formation, the multirotor UAVs are able to intercept the incoming fixed-wing ...
متن کاملResearch on computer vision-based for UAV autonomous landing on a ship
In this paper, a novel approach to UAV’s automatic landing on the ship’s deck is proposed. We present the design of the cooperative object, and then begin our basic research on UAV autonomous landing on a ship by using computer vision and affine moment invariants. We analyze the infrared radiation images in our experiments by extracting the target from the background and then recognizing it. Al...
متن کاملA Vision-Based Guidance System for UAV Navigation and Safe Landing using Natural Landmarks
In this paper a vision-based approach for guidance and safe landing of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is proposed. The UAV is required to navigate from an initial to a final position in a partially known environment. The guidance system allows a remote user to define target areas from a high resolution aerial or satellite image to determine either the waypoints of the navigation trajectory or...
متن کامل3D Vision Based Landing Control of a Small Scale Autonomous Helicopter
Autonomous landing is a challenging but important task for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) to achieve high level of autonomy. The fundamental requirement for landing is the knowledge of the height above the ground, and a properly designed controller to govern the process. This paper presents our research results in the study of landing an autonomous helicopter. The above‐the‐ground hei...
متن کاملImproved Vision-Based Algorithm for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Autonomous Landing
In vision-based autonomous landing system of UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle), the efficiency of object detection and tracking will directly affect the control system. An improved algorithm of SURF (Speed Up Robust Features) will resolve the problem which is inefficiency of the SURF algorithm in the autonomous landing system of UAV. The improved algorithm is composed of three steps: first, detect ...
