Presentation: Route planning for Continuous Aerial Surveillance by UAVs
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are already widely used for aerial photography for military and civilian purposes. The "Collaborative microdrones" project is developing an approach for a fleet of quadrocopters to support rescue teams in scenarios of industrial and natural disasters. The drones fly over the target area, transmit images to the ground station and present a real-time overview image of the area.
This presentation will focus on the route planning part of the project. The main problem is to combine AI methods with the real environment, i.e. with the constraints imposed by the design of the drones and the application.
