Problems solved by technology

Therefore, this method cannot be popularized on a large scale; and because it only recognizes the target, the landing site is limited to the area where the target is laid in advance, which reduces the flexibility of the drone's autonomous landing to a certain extent.

Abstract

The invention provides a screening method for an unmanned aerial vehicle autonomous landing candidate area in a complex scene without a preset target. The method processes an image in the landing areaacquired in real time. Firstly, landing field leveling calculation based on gradient magnitude is performed on the collected image, and then the preliminary generation of the landing candidate area is realized based on a leveling area. Then, comprehensive determination and screen are performed on the preliminary candidate area by comprehensively using the hue and height confidence coefficient ofthe candidate area. The screening method for the unmanned aerial vehicle autonomous landing candidate area in the complex scene without the preset target has the advantages that the adaptability to complex scene regions is good, the method does not depend on prior target laying, the dependence on the landing environment is lower, and the universality is better. In addition, the candidate area automatically screened by the method usually comprises a number of falling areas, thereby achieving maximum multi-target simultaneous autonomous landing under cluster conditions, and regional adaptivity is provided, thereby greatly improving the range of application and degree of automation of unmanned aerial vehicle autonomous landing.
