Autonomous Three-Dimensional Path Planning of UAV

Developer @e-YAntra, IITB
  • Devised a new method for localization and path planning for a UAV to maneuver through hoops set in different orientations using feedback from a monocular camera placed at a ceiling height
  • Localization of UAV using WhyCon markers mounted above them
  • Pose estimation of Obstacles and Hoops using ArUco markers mounted above them
  • Path planning using RRTConnect algorithm available in OMPL Plugin in V-REP and directing UAV via ROS commands
  • Implementation of four parallel PID on external control loop to command the UAV velocity in direction of its pitch, roll, throttle and yaw
  • This project was later converted to one of the theme/Problem statement in e-YRC'18 named Hungry Bird
