TRADR Summer School on Autonomous Micro Aerial Vehicles

24 August, 2015 Posted by tradr_admin

The second summer school of the TRADR project was held August 24th-28th, 2015, in Schloss Birlinghoven at the Fraunhofer Campus in Sankt Augustin, Germany.

Topic of the school was autonomous micro aerial vehicles (MAVs), which is highly relevant for the search and rescue domain that TRADR addresses. The objective was to give students deep insights into the currently leading approaches to 3D environment perception, mapping, navigation planning, and control of autonomous MAVs.

Lectures, exercises, and case studies from leading international experts gave the participants deep insights into advanced approaches to 3D environment perception, mapping, navigation planning, and control of autonomous MAVs.  Poster presentations and the social programme, including an excursion, facilitated discussions among participants and speakers. The school was organized by the Fraunhofer Institute for Intelligent Analysis and Information Systems IAIS.
