Path Planning

Generates waypoints for the plane to automously fly to

Project Details

  • Tools : C++
During the competition, our plane must accurately hit a series of waypoints and cover a specified search area while avoiding other UAVs in the air. To accomplish this task we develop a robust path planning system that uses Dubins' curves to plan obstacle free paths a fixed wing plane can navigate, and also modify the waypoint navigation controller of the Ardupilot autopilot to perform dynamic obstacle avoidance.
