UC专业高级设计项目

Goal: To develop a fully autonomous winged aircraft capable of navigating a course defined by GPS waypoints and altitudes without any human interaction. When the aircraft reaches each waypoint, it should take a directly downward-facing picture. Takeoff and landing at specific waypoints should also be autonomous. Once the plane lands, the data and pictures from the plane should be able to be downloaded to a computer and be used to generate a high-resolution, wide-area aerial photograph by stitching the collected images together.
