Abstract [en]
This report describes a project aimed at determining the angle of the landing platform to the drones using a tilted platform, IMU, and image processing algorithms. The goal of this project is to determine the safe landing of drones and drone landings by optimizing the landing location via platform tilt adjustment and angle computation. A robotic arm was used to tilt the rectangular platform, and a web camera was used to get images from the top view. Image processing methods built-in MATLAB allow for approximate landing angle determination and angle determination is also done with IMU. The findings confirm the system’s efficiency, with reasonable angle estimates and successful drone landings.
