The Eins3D project — Instantaneous UAV-Based 3D Mapping for Search and Rescue Applications

摘要

The overview of a situation in a search and rescue disaster is the key aspect of an effective assistance. In the recent years the utilization of multicopter with various photogrammetry systems is an upcoming trend and an open field of research. This paper discusses the technical aspects of an automated integral system that will support rescuers during the strategic mission planning and will give situational awareness by instantaneous 3D mapping. The approach combines sensors including a 3D Laserscanner, a thermal camera and an attitude system as a payload unit on an Multicopter. The continuous data fusion and the down link are providing an instant 3D environment map that is continuously revised and updated.
