Surveillance/Inspection drones
Project Details
Problem Statement
How to effectively survey a large area with multiple, cooperating drones
Objectives
Create a model for efficiently surveying areas using multiple, communicating drones
Assumptions
- No obstacles
- Drones can be operated as intended, in clear weather
- All drones are identical
Users and what do they require?
- Law enforcement
- Infrared cameras / live image (or video) feed / Riot detection?
- Farmers
- Camera / “final” image overview (no live feed needed)
- Staatsbosbeheer
- Camera / “final” image overview (no live feed needed)
- Rijkswaterstaat (grachten in Amsterdam, etc.)
- Submarine drones
- Detailed images for inspection of dunes
- Festival organisers
- Detection of the movement of masses/Riot detection?
- Archeologie
- Sensors for depth searching
Requirements
- Equipment failure can be dealt with
- Image stitching requirements
Approach & Milestones
- Have concrete idea
- Have a basic model (single drone)
- Lane coverage
- Have a basic model (multiple drone)
- Lane coverage
- Have reformation of drone organisation after a drone crashes
- Take height, clarity, and camera angle in consideration
- (Some object have a higher priority to be scanned)
Deliverables
An algorithm and computer model
