About the resource/s

In this lecture, first the audiovisual shooting mission is formally defined. The introduced audiovisual shooting definitions are encoded in mission planning commands, i.e., navigation and shooting action vocabulary, and their corresponding parameters. The drone mission commands, as well as the hardware/software architecture required for manual/autonomous mission execution are described.  The software infrastructure includes the planning modules, that assign, monitor and schedule different behaviors/tasks to the drone swarm team according to director and environmental requirements, and the control modules, which execute the planning mission by translating high-level commands to into desired drone+camera configurations, producing commands for autopilot, camera and gimbal of the drone swarm.
