• Abstract: This paper proposes an approach for the task of searching and detecting human using a convolutional neural network and a Quadcopter hardware platform. A pre-trained CNN model is applied to a Raspberry Pi B and a single camera is equipped at the bottom of the Quadcopter. The Quadcopter uses accelerometer-gyroscope sensor and ultrasonic sensor for balancing control. However, these sensors are susceptible to noise caused by the driving forces such as the vibration of the motors, thus, noise processing is implemented. Experiments proved that the system works well on the Raspberry Pi B with a processing speed of 3 fps.

  Drone-to-drone detection using visual feed has crucial applications, such as detecting drone collisions, detecting drone attacks, or coordinating flight with other drones. Existing methods are computationally costly, follow non-end-to-end optimization, and have complex multi-stage pipelines, making them less suitable for real-time deployment on edge devices. We propose a simple yet effective framework, itTransVisDrone, that provides an end-to-end solution with higher computational efficiency.
