Embedded platform for UAS obstacle and landing path detection-PERSEO

The PERSEO (Piattaforma Embedded per la Ricerca del Sentiero di Atterraggio ed Ostacoli-Embedded Platform for Obstacle and Landing Path Detection) system is my Ph.D. research theme. Specifically, the idea and main research focus are the design and development of an embedded electronic platform that will be installed on an unmanned aircraft system (UAS) for attitude control and obstacle detection. The aim is to calculate and extract the landing path and detect obstacles that surround the unmanned aircraft. The sensors onboard the main platform must have these key specifications: low cost, miniature size, robustness, and fast response time.
