Autonomous Quadrotor for the 2015 IARC by Team Elikos

The aim of this paper is to present a system design for a fully autonomous microaerial vehicle capable of demonstrating behavior for the completion of the IARC mission 7. While outdoor navigation methods have been extensively researched and demonstrated in the past, the system we hereby present shall be able to demonstrate indoor navigation capabilities with the use of GNC sensors, a LIDAR, and cameras with a heavy emphasis on computer vision for localization.
