Control and Visualization System for UAV Helicopter using the HIL Simulation

Vignesh Kumar Chandhrasekaran, Eunmi Choi, Dugki Min

Abstract


The development of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) initially was much focused on military application to civilian application which has many issues in precise design and development cost. In this paper, we have focused on developing UAV Helicopter using QNX operating system to establish the hardware in the loop simulation. Hardware in the loop simulation enables to develop a dynamic simulation in order to study the response to certain stimuli
that cannot be analyzed in any other way. We have also focused on the automatic landing of the helicopter and have enhanced the ground control system. The ground control system is integrated with the Google earth and flight gear to monitor the helicopter remotely as well as interactive and informative management.
