  3. 7. Drones for Sea Rescue: Lab and Field Experiments on Camera Gimbal Control

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Alexander Sandström; [2023]
    Keywords : Drones; Search and Rescue; Unmanned Aerial Vehicle; UAV; gimbal; camera control; ArduPilot; Quality of Experience; QoE; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The objective of this thesis has been to improve the camera controls of a fixed-wing drone to be used in maritime search-and-rescue operations by the Swedish Sea Rescue Society (SSRS). A gimbal control interface (GCI) has been implemented that displays the video feed of the drone camera while taking control inputs from a joystick that moves its view in real-time. READ MORE
