Overview
Develop an autonomous drone that finds and lands on the safest colored pad during a simulated emergency.
Key Challenges
- Using computer vision in a Gazebo simulation, the drone must identify, evaluate, and execute a precision landing on the optimal colored target.
Key Challenges
- Simulate: Trigger a battery failure mid-flight during a waypoint mission
- Detect: Identify and classify colored landing pads using an onboard camera
- Choose the best pad based on a scoring logic (color priority, distance, size).
- Execute a safe, autonous landing onto the selected target.
Expected Outcomes
- A working simulation demonstrating the complete emergency landing procedure, from visual detection to a precise touchdown.
