Embodiment Construction

[0128] In order to realize the rapid and accurate autonomous landing of the rotor UAV to the ground landing platform, the present invention discloses a new method for attitude estimation of the rotor UAV based on monocular vision positioning. The present invention makes full use of the advantages of easy and fast extraction of image geometric features to perform attitude estimation, aiming to meet the requirements of the rapidity and calculation amount of the UAV control system under the premise of ensuring the accuracy of estimation, and overcome the inability of traditional attitude estimation methods to meet both requirements. It is a problem with high accuracy and small amount of calculation. In order to better prove the effectiveness and accuracy of the present invention, and considering that it is difficult to accurately obtain the UAV attitude information corresponding to the image directly through the UAV image collection, it is not conducive to the verification of the ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a monocular vision positioning-based rotor unmanned aerial vehicle attitude estimation method, which comprises the following steps of: firstly, preprocessing an image which iscaptured by an airborne camera and contains a visual mark, eliminating image noise and highlighting the visual mark; According to the geometric characteristics of the visual mark, extracting the visual mark composed of an H-shaped mark and a circular ring through a five-step method; Then, detecting 12 corner points of the H-shaped mark by adopting a distance three-point method, and matching the 12corner points with corresponding corner points in a preset reference image; And finally, calculating a homography matrix according to the matched angular point pairs, decomposing the homography matrix by adopting a direct linear transformation DLT method to calculate an attitude angle of the unmanned aerial vehicle relative to the visual sign, and calculating position data of the unmanned aerialvehicle relative to the visual sign according to a similar triangle principle of camera imaging. The method is higher in calculation speed and has a better practical value.
