Abstract

In this article, we present the use of depth estimation in real time using the on-board camera in a micro-UAV through convolutional neuronal networks. The experiments and results of the implementation of the system in a micro-UAV are presented to verify the unsupervised model improvement with monocular cameras and the error regarding real model.
