Abstract:
One of the main challenges in the field of flying robots is the position control in enclosed areas, and places where Global Positioning System (GPS) is not accessible. Currently, employing machine vision and image navigation platforms are very common in robotic field. In this work, the design and configuration of a quadrotor with the navigating and position controlling platform based on imaging and optical flow approach is described. The linear velocity of the flying robot is achieved through the evaluation of the pixels movement of the images taken by a camera, which is installed beneath the robot body. In this work, by applying the feedback of an optical flow sensor and an ultrasonic range finder, 3D position holding, automatic take-off and landing and automatic path following were achieved by the robot.
