Design and Exploration of a Computer Vision Based Unmanned Aerial Vehicle for Railroad Health Applications
Railroad tracks require consistent and periodic monitoring to ensure safety and reliability. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have great potential because they are not constrained to the track, allowing trains to continue running while the UAV is inspecting. Also, they can be quickly deployed without...
