Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Take off from Inclined Surfaces in Disaster Situations

Article Preview

Abstract:

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been utilized to acquire imagery for disaster research and management in recent years. Because of the huge destructive power of natural disasters, it is usually difficult for UAVs to find plane to take off. In this paper, we proposed a hybrid system to control UAVs, taking off from inclined surfaces continuously. The relationship between the pitch angle and the altitude of UAVs has been analyzed. The experiments results show that our hybrid system and method are efficient and applicable in disaster situations.
