Development of an Autonomous UAV for Aerial Photography at GPS Waypoints

This project focuses on designing an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) that can autonomously navigate to specified GPS waypoints, capture images with an onboard camera, and return to its base. Key challenges included maintaining flight stability with the additional weight of the camera and equipment, balancing the UAV, and optimizing the PCB size. Additionally, we addressed concerns related to GPS sensitivity and RF interference, while implementing robust software control algorithms. The successful demo showcased the UAV's capabilities in real-time navigation and image capture.
