Precision Following of a Ground Vehicle by a Fully Instrumented Quadcopter
Quadcopters are being used across a wide range of applications due to their payload capacity and flight endurance. These qualities make the quadcopter ideal for a precision following robot that can track a target and relay information back to a central command center. A quadcopter has been fully fitted with a flight controller, onboard camera, and an inertial measurement unit (IMU). This quadrotor has shown potential for a stable and reliable target tracking robot via three techniques: colored marker tracking, neural network (machine learning), and an indoor tracking system. In the future, a more robust quadcopter will be investigated.
