Abstract

UAVs have been mainly used for defence since 200??, however since entering the commercial market UAV development for personal use has taken the forefront of UAV development. Due to the increasing functionality available on commercial UAVs many sectors have begun exploring the possible applications of drones.

Many papers published on UAV development Potential for student courses

Our project focuses on implementing obstacle evasion within a defined space using an Optitrack System. This wiki shall firstly discuss the background motivations behind this study as well as the research that has already been conducted within this field. The project shall then be broken into sections...
