Following a person’s movement through the scene, combining visual detection with position estimation to help the drone keep track of its filming subject.
Overview
Exploring reinforcement learning for autonomous aerial filming, with the goal of helping a drone follow a moving subject and find suitable viewpoints. Our current work brings together target-following behavior and human-position estimation to support more responsive filming in complex environments.
