Gabriel M. Hoffmann, Steven W. Waslander and Michael P.Vitus are come from Stanford University. They design a aircraft which fly indoor automatically. They combine the information provided by GPS/INS/EC through the extended Kalman filtering algorithm so as to control the stability of aircraft. The aircraft can travel independently through the waypoint preset, meanwhile, it can transmit the flight parameters and image information to mission station real-time through Wi-Fi. We can see the picture in Fig. 1-3.
