Sistema automático de planejamento de voos e tratamento de imagens para veículos aéreos não tripulados

Abstract

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Systems - UAVS relates to an emerging technology that has generated impact on the global aviation field with its innovative approach to general aerial transportation and can be applicable in different areas such as public security, military, intelligence, search and rescue, mining, agriculture and livestock, and others. One of their main contributions is the reduction of the development cost. Another important contribution is to reduce the operating costs of these new tools when compared to traditional aviation. These flying platforms enable the creation of new specific solutions for each application area and enables other existing ideas, but not tried because of the high operating cost of using manned aircraft. In this context, this work proposes the development of a set of tools, including the construction of an unmanned aircraft vehicle for data capture using sensors like cameras and radio-frequency readers, applied to agribusiness to get informations to understanding the various aspects of agricultural production chain, making possible to view, to manage, decide and maximize results.
