Use of inertial and altimeter information for rectified searches in image target tracking for drone applications

摘要

In this paper, a model for target tracking with data fusion taken from inertial and altimeter sensors for a quadcopter is proposed. With some environmental restrains and using INS/altitude data, the new position and template changes are predicted. The model dynamics is estimated on the basis of the specifications of the UAV IRIS+, with a pointgrey blackfly camera (PGE-13E4C-CS), a gimbal (TAROT 2D), and a Laser Rangefinder (SF02). Simulation results are shown.
