Visual servoing for a quadcopter flight control
Author: Podhradský Michal
In this thesis the potential of visual servoing techniques for vertical take-off and landing
(VTOL) UAV platforms is explored. An overview of UAV applications and state-of-theart
quadrotors is provided, backed up by the necessary theoretical background. Visual
servoing based solutions of the important flight tasks (such as vertical take-off and landing,
obstacle avoidance and attitude estimation) are presented.
A novel vision based autopilot for vertical take-off and landing is developed, experimentally
verified and implemented on a medium-size outdoor quadrotor platform provided
by Dr. YangQuan Chen from Utah State University, Center for Self-Organizing
Intelligent Systems.
