Abstract

Drones have gradually become an essential aerial vehicle in contemporary human life, so finding a suitable control method has become a research direction for scientists. Simultaneous Localisation and Map Building (SLAM) technology is considered to be a big hit technology in the future drone control field, which is characterised by high accuracy, high robustness and high stability. In this paper, for the key technology of drone control, obstacle avoidance and navigation system, SLAM is combined with PX4 to achieve obstacle avoidance and the Robot Operating System (ROS) system is used for navigation. Obstacle avoidance and navigation systems are the two most critical technologies in drone control methods, and researchers have set up two sets of specialised systems to realise autonomous control of the drone. SLAM technology can enable drone to achieve highly efficient and intelligent navigation and obstacle avoidance, but whether the technology can maintain its own stability under long-time working conditions and whether the cost of LIDAR is too high are still issues that need to be continuously researched and solved. However, whether the technology can maintain its stability under long-time working condition and the cost of LIDAR still need to be studied and solved.
