Abstract

The paper describes of the Ryze Tello drone to move autonomously using a basic vision system. The drone's position is determined by identifying AprilTags' position relative to the drone's built-in camera. The accuracy of the drone's position readings and distance calculations was tested under controlled conditions, and errors were analysed. The study showed a decrease in absolute error with decreasing drone distance from the marker, a little change in the relative error for large distances, and a sharp decrease in the relative error for small distances. The method is satisfactory for determining the drone's position relative to a marker.
