Abstract:

This research investigates the development of an automated system consisting of a drone that takes off, moves to a designated area in an indoors environment, identifies a tool, picks it up, and returns it to a desired position. A gantry system test bed has been used to test the combination of a real-time image recognition software to determine a position of a given object, pick it up and carry it to a desired position. Future work will focus on implementing this system to a drone in combination with a depth recognition system.
