ARTIS (aviation)
ARTIS stands for " A utonomous R otorcraft T estbed for I ntelligent S (dtsch. Ystems" Autonomous rotary-wing test vehicle intelligent systems ).
The German Aerospace Center DLR , Institute for Flight System Technology , operates an experimental platform based on a remote-controlled model helicopter (Genesis by Ludwig Benda). This helicopter is equipped with, among other things, an on-board computer, inertial sensors and GPS to research processes and algorithms for autonomous hovering and cross-country flight.
Of particular interest is the "on-board intelligence" which is supposed to enable the system to avoid obstacles independently based on camera images.
