Title
Intelligent navigation and target recognition for unmanned aerial vehicles
Abstract
With the rapid development of modern electronic and information technologies, UAVs have rapidly permeated multiple fields, such as daily life, industrial applications, and military operations. Examples include agricultural spraying, high-voltage power line inspections, logistics transportation, and target recognition. In these applications, the navigation efficiency and accuracy of unmanned aerial vehicles are of crucial importance. This report presents the research progress of the ENIAC Laboratory at Hangzhou Dianzi University in the areas of vision-language navigation for UAVs, trajectory planning for UAV swarms. Finally, a specific application of UAV-based target recognition is demonstrated.
