Abstract: | Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are an area of significant research activity these days because of their use in dull, dangerous, and dirty tasks. Lack of human pilot paves the way for advanced and more sophisticated control algorithms that should just not control each and every aspect of flight dynamics but also accomplish the disired task at the same time. Visual Servoing is one way of controlling the attitude and position of aircrafts by using camera as a sensor. |
