Meet SUPER: the high-speed AI drone that sees, thinks, and flies with precision

CGTN Europe

The SUPER MAV (or, Safety-Assured High-Speed Aerial Robot Micro Air Vehicle) can deftly maneuver through intricate, uncharted landscapes while dodging obstacles as it flies.  "The AI technology can take in the measurements, understands the environments, and then it can generate a target position all by itself. In this way, the whole system will be fully autonomous without any human intervention," explained Professor Zhang Fu from The University of Hong Kong.  #drone #china #AI #technology #tech #engineering

00:00Researchers in Hong Kong have developed a miniature drone called the SuperMav that is

00:17capable of navigating complex and unknown terrains like forests at speeds exceeding

00:2370 km per hour while avoiding obstacles and mapping its route in real time.

00:36The sensor's data is processed by an AI-driven planning framework that generates two pathways,

00:42one that stays within known safe areas and another that includes known and unknown areas

00:48to maximise speed.

00:50This allows the drone to make split-second decisions that drastically enhance reliability.
