Methodology
Throughout the duration of this project, the following methodology will be followed:
- Acquire the required hardware for this project (Parrot AR-Drone).
- Research the image processing methods most suitable for the task at hand.
- Research the machine learning methods that may be most useful for categorizing features in the drone video stream.
- Decide which approach to follow regarding and which methods to use.
- Divide the system into three phases (specify and design the architecture of the system), and implement each one using the previously researched methods:
- Autonomous flight.
- Object recognition.
- Avoidance commands.
- Redaction of the final report and presentation.
