UAS/Drone Technology: Sensors and Payloads

О курсе

This course introduces the sensors onboard Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) and how they integrate with platform subsystems, including the accelerometer, Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), and GPS. These core sensors are critical to UAS flight and navigation, but they're just the starting point: a wide variety of sensors are available for UAS payloads, each opening up new applications worth exploring in greater detail. By the end of this course, you'll discover new sensors and payload applications across the drone industry, build a foundational understanding of the science and technology behind them, and gain the knowledge needed to select the right sensor for your specific UAS application, whether for mapping, inspection, agriculture, public safety, or other real-world use cases.
