Problems solved by technology

[0003] The electronic system of the quadrotor drone can be composed of two subsystems, the sensor and the flight control; the sensor system needs to accurately measure or estimate the status of the drone, and it transmits the flight status of the drone to the flight control system, such as position, speed, attitude angle, and angular velocity The control subsystem is used to achieve good flight control; the sensor system can be subdivided into attitude sensors and position sensors; the commonly used attitude sensors are composed of three-axis accelerometers, three-axis gyroscopes, magnetometers and other MEMS components. It can be used both indoors and outdoors; position sensors mostly use GPS, Beidou and other satellite positioning and navigation systems, but it is difficult for this type of sensor to achieve accurate positioning between buildings and indoor environments with weak GPS signals; in order to solve the problem of accurate positioning in the
