Visual Collision Avoidance for Drones and Light Aircrafts

Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Allemand)

The skies will soon be full not only of birds and traditional aircrafts but also of unmanned drones, para-gliders, blimps, and other flying objects that all constitute potential collision threats. Some will carry devices making them easy to detect and avoid, but not all. To help navigate such a crowded environment, we will develop a lightweight video-based system that can detect threats and alert the pilots and drone operators.
