Abstract

Flight tests are carried out to complete the flight test campaigns. During flight test, safety and time factors are at the forefront. The safety of aircraft during flight, reducing flight test schedule are provided by telemetry systems. In some cases, such as GPS loss, jamming, the radio frequency tracking methods used in these systems may be insufficient. In order to eliminate this situation, auxiliary systems have been developed for telemetry systems. In this study, a camera system will be used as an auxiliary system since camera systems provide visual tracking and are inexpensive. The aim of this study is to perform visual tracking with a single camera with deep learning methods and to synchronize with these systems to assist RF tracking systems.
