Quadrotor object tracking using real-time motion sensing

This paper presents a motion sensing platform based autonomous mobile object tracking using Unmanned aerial Vehicle (UAV). The position of the moving object was estimated using VICON motion capture camera system, and the information was processed using locally developed Matlab Simulink code. The UAV was assigned to navigate autonomously along the path of the moving vehicle and track it. The derived data was plotted and the efficiency of the tracking system is analyzed.
