Abstract :
This paper proposes a novel solution for incline detection of UAVs. To investigate the intelligent behavior for a quadcopter, a special robot vision camera is coupled together with a present inclinometer. The purpose of the sensor is to provide sufficiently quick and accurate information to the onboard control system so that it can maintain level attitude for a prolonged period of time. With the contribution of this camera based inclinometer, effectively, the speed of DC motors of blade can be regulated automatically in the corresponding cases to realize the balancing act.
