UAV Localization

UAV localization focuses on accurately determining the position and orientation of unmanned aerial vehicles, crucial for autonomous navigation and various applications. Current research emphasizes robust solutions for GPS-denied environments, employing diverse sensor fusion techniques (e.g., combining visual, inertial, and radio frequency data) and advanced algorithms like neural networks, Kalman filtering, and graph optimization. These advancements are improving the reliability and precision of UAV navigation, impacting fields such as surveying, search and rescue, and infrastructure inspection.
