The UAVs performing SLAM aim to provide a continual estimate of where the system is currently moving along with it’s pose within the respective environment.With proficiency in indoor navigation, these UAVs work on the phenomenon of marking the coordinates of the initial position in the start. This is followed by taking the distance of consequent places from the initial position in account. Ultimately, the UAVs map the entire environment in 3-dimensional form.
Representing our team’s prime selling propositions, we plan to work on evolving the existing technology in this field. With immense experience in Intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, gained by working in collaboration with tech giants like Lockheed martin, we are working towards technology that will play a vital role in the betterment of technology used by the armed forces.
The UAV drones are to be used for remote site inspections to avoid too many people on the ground. They can capture data in difficult locations with high quality output and offer the advantage of quick and accurate documentation at low costs and with minimal time consumption and personnel. This can also help inspectors avoid having to place themselves in dangerous situations. Usage of UAVs for site inspections can thus reduce both time and man power significantly.
One of our major future prospects, the team aims to build complimentary systems that can work together in cohesion to perform certain tasks. Currently The team is currently working on developing a Robotic Arm which would be mounted on an Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) to revolutionize the field of agriculture by autonomously detecting and harvesting the crops and to deliver crop management interventions by automatically detecting the need.
