  • Abstract
    This study discusses a communication system using a LED panel and a video camera for an UAV control. The LED panel is used to display various patterns, such as QR codes, micro QR codes and AR markers. And, images of LED panel taken by the video camera on the UAV are used to extract some information to UAV. 3D position and pose of the camera from the LED panel are also estimated. In this paper, we propose a method to distinguish AR markers, QR and micro QR codes automatically, and show results of discriminated rates in the experiment.
