Abstract:
An autonomous quadcopter has four motors, each motor coupled to a corresponding propeller and a flight controller coupled to the four motors to provide input to the four motors to control flight. The autonomous quadcopter also has a plurality of cameras and an Artificial Intelligence (AI) controller coupled to the plurality of cameras to receive input from the plurality of cameras, determine a flightpath for the autonomous quadcopter according to the input from the plurality of cameras, and provide commands to the flight controller to direct the flight controller to follow the flightpath.
