Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a laser line-assisted visual navigation and positioning method for an unmanned aerial vehicle, belonging to the technical field of visual navigation. Background technique
[0002] Generally, the most common way for UAVs to navigate and locate in environments with sparse features and dark light is to estimate the navigation information of UAVs based on the data of accelerometers and gyroscopes based on inertial sensors. However, the error of the inertial navigation system will Accumulated over time, navigation accuracy can become poor after long hours of work.
[0003] In order to solve the above problems, there are three existing improved navigation and positioning methods for UAVs in sparsely featured and dark environments:
[0004] Method 1: Add a Global Navigation Satellite System (Global Navigation Satellite System, GNSS) module to the UAV, and use the high positioning accuracy of GNSS to correct the error of the inertial ...
