Aerial Smoke Detection and Localization

Hexacopter UAV platform for real-time aerial smoke detection and source localization using onboard sensing and computer vision

Aerial smoke detection hexacopter

Developed and flew a hexacopter UAV platform for real-time aerial smoke detection and source localization. The system combines onboard sensing with computer vision to autonomously detect smoke plumes and estimate source location from aerial imagery during flight.
