Abstract :
[en] This paper is focused on the design of a vision
based control approach for the autonomous landing task
of Vertical Take-off and Landing (VTOL) Unmanned Aerial
Vehicles (UAVs). Here is presented the setup of a simulated
environment developed in V-REP connected to ROS, and its
uses for tuning a vision based control approach. In this work,
a Fuzzy control approach was proposed to command the UAV’s
vertical, longitudinal, lateral and orientation velocities. The
UAV’s pose estimation was done based on a vision algorithm
and the knowledge of the landing target. Real experiments with
a quadrotor landing in a moving platform are also presented.
