Research on computer vision-based for UAV autonomous landing on a ship
نویسندگان
چکیده
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. Also, we calculate the angle of yaw. We study the basic research concerning automatic UAV navigation and landing on the deck. Based on our experiments, the average recognition time is 17.2 ms which is obtained through the use of affine moment invariants. This type of speed is expected to improve the reliability and real-time performance of autonomous UAV landing. 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Selecting the Visual Landing Markers Located on a Ship Deck for UAV Automatic Landing
Of all the flight modes of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), the landing approach and the landing itself are the most difficult and dangerous ones. To perform an automatic landing on a ship deck using a computer vision system (CVS), a UAV must analyze the visual landing markers located on the deck. When the UAV is about to start landing, these markers must be clearly visible and discernible. The...

متن کاملTowards Autonomous UAV Landing Based on Infrared Beacons and Particle Filtering
Autonomous fixed-wing UAV landing based on differential GPS is now a mainstream providing reliable and precise landing. But the task still remains challenging when GPS aviability is limited like for military UAV’s. We discuss a solution of this problem based on computer vision and dot markings along stationary or makeshift runway. We focus our attempts on using infrared beacons along with narro...
