Abstract

This article presents an innovative approach to navigation using image recognition in situations characterized by limited access to GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) signals (signal interference). The presented system relies on image processing to define the characteristic edges of random objects. Subsequently, the actual speed of the moving object (UAV) is obtained based on changes in the object's position. The article aims to show the potential of image recognition in navigational systems. The actual speed obtained by the image recognition can be used to correct the inertial navigation system.
