Justification of the choice of radiation sources for a computer vision system in the problem of automatic landing of unmanned aerial vehicles

Abstract

An expedient spectral range of radiation sources for use in the automatic landing system of unmanned aerial vehicles has been substantiated. A method is proposed for synchronizing the photoexposure of the computer vision system and radiation from landmarks for the unambiguous determination of their mutual position. Results of the experimental studies are presented.
