Autonomous Aerial Robotics

Published:

This is a collection of projects for the course ELEC5660 (Introduction to Aerial Robotics) @ HKUST, 2025 Spring. Instructor: Prof. Shaojie SHEN.

Project Overview

Develop control algorithms, trajectory planning, and sensor fusion techniques for an autonomous aerial robot by utilizing rigid-body dynamics, A* path planning, PnP-based localization, visual odometry, and (augmented state) Extended Kalman Filter (EKF)-based state estimation to enable vision-based indoor navigation and real-time flight control.

The whole course’s projects are divided into the following sub-projects.
