Stereo Vision sensor module for UAV---What do you want??

Posted by xiaohu on December 14, 2014 at 11:12pm

Hi, all:

Our team is working on some kind of stereo vision system for drones and we have already made some progress. However, we would like to know from you:

What kind of functionality you want from this module, like vision-based hovering indoor or vision based obstacle avoidance.....?

Or you are free to talk anything you expect for this module. 

Thank you.

    Both those 2 things : Obstacle avoidance no1 and Optical Flow with distance awareness would be no2.

    More than 2 units per machine, ie: forward AND down.

    Ability to feed stereo vision to video goggles for 3D FPV.

    my 2

      Thanks for your reply.

      If the functionality of obstacle avoidance is based on putting a constraint on the maximum flying speed of Quadcopter, will you accept this condition?

        In situations where optical avoidance is necessary, flying speed would be a very secondary consideration.

        So yes, a slower flying copter would be quite acceptable.
