Zielsetzung und Themenschwerpunkte (Objectives and Key Themes)
This work presents a Simulink model and animation of a skydiver being followed by a camera UAV. The model simulates the dynamics of both the UAV and the skydiver, including their aerodynamic behavior, kinematics, and control systems. The aim is to provide a comprehensive tool for understanding and analyzing the complex interaction between the skydiver and the UAV during a skydiving scenario.
- UAV dynamics and control
- Skydiver kinematics and aerodynamics
- Simulation of the interaction between UAV and skydiver
- Camera tracking and field of view
- Real-time animation and visualization
Zusammenfassung der Kapitel (Chapter Summaries)
The work begins with a detailed description of the Simulink model, covering its general overview, the wind and track components, the UAV's dynamics, aerodynamics, and control systems. Chapter 2 focuses on the animation process, including the setup, start, and update functions for the simulation. It also explains the model's communication structure and the camera's field of view. Finally, Chapter 3 discusses the skydiver flight data and how it is generated and used in the simulation.
