TOMSK, Aug 11 – RIA Tomsk. Scientists of Tomsk State University of control systems and radioelectronics (TUSUR) develop software for UAVs which will allow to use two navigation systems in devices– GPS and GLONASS that will increase safety of flights, the press service of higher education institution reports on Tuesday.
It is specified that now UAVs (drones) are used around the world for photo and video filming, deliveries of goods, help to rescuers, search of people. Enhancement of intellectual software for automatic flight of a device will allow to ensure safety: to avoid collisions of thrones with living objects, airliners, the high voltage line, birds.
"The software is developed for programming of scenarios of automatic devices, for example, of UAVs , – the scripting language of XRobot which is capable to provide high accuracy of its positioning and can be applied as in aircraft (multicopters, helicopters, planes, dirigibles), and in terrestrial devices (wheel or caterpillar platforms)", – it is told in the message.
Developers explain that the system provides completely automatic flight. The aircraft is able to bend hindrances independently, to return to an original path, and to look for a suitable place for landing, near the given coordinates.According to higher education institution, feature of the XRobot programming language is the drone can use directly two navigation systems – GPS and GLONASS with its help when flying, unlike the foreign analogs equipped only with GPS system.
"The Uniqueness of the software is a two-level programming language. The low level allows to be implemented into any microprocessor platform that is the software can be set to already existing types of drones, and its application by development of platforms of a domestic production is possible. The high level will allow to write for a multicopter different scenarios", – higher education institution reports.
