Abstract: A localization and flight planning system for a drone performing inventory management is disclosed. The system includes a drone with sensors, one or more machine-learned models, and controllers. The system is configured to obtain data indicating inventory items to be scanned by the drone. The sensors are configured to obtain sensor data indicative of a warehouse infrastructure within the warehouse environment. The system is further configured to identify objects of interest based on the sensor data and store information associated with the objects of interest in an onboard memory. The one or more models are configured to generate one or more location anchors based on the objects of interest and localize the drone within the warehouse environment. The system may be further configured to generate flight plans based on localizing drone within the warehouse. The controllers may be configured to control the drone by executing the flight plans.
