Situational Awareness of a Ground Robot From an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle

Situational Awareness of a Ground Robot From an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle

In the operation of unmanned vehicles, safety is a primary concern. This thesis focuses on the use of computer vision in the development of a situational awareness system that allows for safe deployment and operation of a ground robot from an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). A method for detecting uti...
