Research on Visual Slam Technology for UAV Positioning and Navigation

UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) navigation can be considered as the process of robots that determine how to successfully and quickly reach the target location. Specifically, in order to complete the scheduled task successfully, the UAV must accurately understand its status, such as position, navigation speed, heading, as well as the starting point and target position. Moreover, it mainly depends on the current environment and location. This article generally focuses on the research on visual SLAM (Simultaneous localization and mapping) for UAV positioning and navigation.
