April 29, 2024

In cooperation with the DLR ZKI did we conduct drone flights last week using Lidar and oblique sensors in order to provide valuable landscape information for autonomous vehicle navigation. Within the project the feasibility to map unknown areas and its accessibility for rapid response and humanitarian aid using UAS borne sensors is analysed.
The data will now be processed and shared with our colleagues from ZKI for navigating the SHERP system through different terrains. Currently the approach is tested within Germany but of course it is planned to transfer such approaches to areas where actual humanitarian aid is required.
