To integrate an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV, or drone) and an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV, or rover) into a single autonomous system. The system should be able to communicate and pathfind in unknown environments. Possible applications would be cold trailing, garbage collection, or search and rescue. <\/span><\/h2>\n

A multiple-robot simultaneous location and mapping protocol (SLAM) must be developed to integrate the perspectives of the drone and rover into a global map in real time. The drover must also be able to maneuver through unknown terrain. Our project proposes a cooperative pathfinding protocol called Long-term Direction, Short-term Correction (LDSC), where the drone with a downward facing camera dictates long-term paths, and the rover identifies smaller objects in its path and dodges them in short-term. <\/span><\/h2>\n

The drone turns its overhead images into node maps and uses the A* pathfinding algorithm to produce a long-term path for the rover. It was found that weighing each pixel by color in the A* algorithm can produce a more effective path, as the path would prioritize similar terrain and avoid large obstacles. <\/span><\/h2>\n

The pixel path from the drone image must be converted into GPS coordinates for the rover to follow. In order to minimize camera distortion error, the checkerboard camera calibration algorithm is used to create distortion coefficients for the drone\u2019s camera. To convert the pixel path into a GPS path, the drone uses the optical magnification formula to calculate the real-world distance between each pixel coordinate of the path to the center of the image. Vincenty’s formula is used to convert the distances into GPS coordinates, yielding GPS conversion results accurate to the millimeter.<\/span><\/h2>\n

For the physical aspect of the project, we have a functional drone and rover. Our drone can fly completely autonomously to a predetermined location (see drone video). We are using a raspberry pi as the onboard computer, which allows us to take images and control the drone from the ground. We are currently working on building a gimbal that will ensure that the camera remains parallel to the surface of the Earth. Our rover currently can be controlled via remote control (see rover video). The raspberry pi and autonomous driving are set up. In simulation, autonomous driving is successful, but in the real world, the rover appears to drive to random locations rather than the assigned GPS coordinates. We believe that the issues are related to GPS calibration and a flimsy GPS attachment, resulting in the GPS constantly wobbling and falling over. (drone hardware map picture) (rover hardware map picture) (drone autonomous flying video) (rover autonomous flying video) To correct camera distortion of any image taken by the drone, we first estimated the camera characteristics using camera calibration. With the camera stationary, we moved a checkerboard with known square sizes and captured images as we moved the board around the camera\u2019s field of view. Our calibration algorithm is then able to find each corner of the checkerboard in the image. By mapping each corner to the real world point, we can estimate the distortion of the camera. After repeated testing, we are currently able to get a reprojection error of 0.1, which means that our estimation is nearly perfect. (image of how projection works) (images of distorted image compared to undistorted) A* is the long-term direction pathfinding algorithm used on the drone images. The Python OpenCV image processing library is used to process the image as a graph of nodes. Each pixel of the image is a node with coordinate and color values. The A* algorithm will find the shortest path between two specified pixels. A* will prioritize pixels that are linearly closest to the end pixel, as well as similarly colored pixels (dramatic color change likely indicates dramatic terrain change). This allows the algorithm to avoid obstacles while maintaining the shortest distance to the end pixel when possible. Currently, our python A* program has been tested on satellite images and is able to effectively navigate obstacles and stay on paths. The algorithm may prioritize difference in pixel color too much (avoids small obstacles), or too little (goes through difficult obstacles in order to have a shorter distance). The priority of pixel color vs shortest distance can be fine-tuned once we test A* with the rover. (A* images) The rover uses GPS coordinates as directions to drive autonomously. A* outputs a sequence of pixel coordinates, so we need to be able to map an image to real world GPS coordinates. As described in the abstract, we designed an algorithm that maps each pixel coordinate to a real world GPS coordinate by first calculating the real world distance before converting it to GPS coordinates. Currently, our pixel distance to real world distance algorithm has yielded +- 2 cm accuracy (See pixel to distance image). The error could also be attributed to human error as the pixels marking the beginning and end of the object in the image were selected by hand. The measurement can be further fine-tuned once run with A*. The final conversion to GPS coordinates has thus far been tested on satellite imaging and accurate online distance calculators, yielding millimeter accuracy. (distance calculation data) (astar to coordinates data) With each of the most basic components of the project nearly complete, we\u2019ve created a pipeline to connect each of the components, so we can begin testing DROVER as a complete system while we begin to research direct networking and communication between the drone, rover, and ground control station.

With the basic requirements of the hardware nearly complete, in the short term we will be getting the rover functioning autonomously by testing waypoint navigation with mission planner and the raspberry pi. We are also currently working on a gyroscopic 3-axis camera mount for the drone camera in order to take stable pictures parallel to the ground while the drone is moving. On the software end, we will make the A* pathfinding algorithm on images more efficient and find a way to handle continuous footage from the drone. In the long term, we are planning on adding LIDAR and other sensors to the rover, so it can map its surroundings in real time and avoid obstacles that the drone could not detect as part of the short term correction of the LDSC algorithm. Finally, we plan on integrating all parts of the project with a central database aided by Apache Kafka or ROS to send map data, drone and rover commands , and rover sensor data.<\/span><\/h2>\n
