Outdoor Flight Test Videos

M300 drone flies along the defined zigzag path, while the attention gate U-net is implemented to detect and segment the suspect wildfire.

  1. Once the suspect fire is detected, M300 will fly from left to the right. In the meantime, a monocular SLAM is running to acquire the precise camera pose, the GPS information is used to correct the scale of the poses.
  2. Based-on the triangulation of the fire zone, the distance can be estimated. Then, the fire can be geolocated by with the gimbal angle.

Finally, M300 will fly along a circle shape of the flight path to record the scene of the local environment around the wildfire spot with the H20T zoom camera.
