Resumo

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have become a prominent research field due to their vast applicability and reduced size. An appealing aspect of the UAVs is the ability to accomplish autonomous flights in several contexts and purposes, and a variety of applications have been developed, from military to civilian fields. The system proposed in this work is a novel and simplified interaction between the user and the UAV for autonomous flight, where the necessary computation is performed in an embedded computer, decreasing response time and eliminating the necessity of long-distance communication links with base stations. Results are presented with both hardware in the loop simulations and a real UAV using Pixhawk, and Odroid and ROS as companion computer and software platform for code development.
