DRONE WITH FORWARD-LOOKING CAMERA IN WHICH THE CONTROL PARAMETERS, ESPECIALLY AUTOEXPOSURE, ARE MADE INDEPENDENT OF THE ATTITUDE

The drone comprises a camera (14), an inertial unit (46) measuring the drone angles, and an extractor module (52) delivering image data of a mobile capture area of reduced size dynamically displaced in a direction opposite to that of the angle variations measured by the inertial unit. Compensator me...

Zusammenfassung:The drone comprises a camera (14), an inertial unit (46) measuring the drone angles, and an extractor module (52) delivering image data of a mobile capture area of reduced size dynamically displaced in a direction opposite to that of the angle variations measured by the inertial unit. Compensator means (52) receive as an input the current drone attitude data and acting dynamically on the current value (54) of an imaging parameter such as auto-exposure, white balance or autofocus, calculated as a function of the image data contained in the capture area.
