ABSTRACT
Quad-rotor UAV is an unmanned aircraft controlled by radio remote control equipment and independent program control device. In the past five years, unmanned intelligent equipment has attracted extensive attention. At present, the application of UAV in aerial photography, agriculture, plant protection, mapping and other fields has greatly expanded the application of UAV itself. Our UAV is based on TI MSP432, which can be connected to PC via USB port. This printed circuit board is used to transmit the program for the flight control of UAV. The OpenMV module serves as the data source of the line patrol controller, which is the top-level controller, the same level as the remote controller. The IMU unit calculates information to attitude controller, in order to keep the flight of UAV stable. After the IMU solution information is fused with the optical flow sensor, the information is sent to the horizontal controller to control the flight of the UAV in the horizontal direction. Similarly, After the IMU information is fused with the laser height information, the height controller is applied to control the flight height of UAV.
