Also a group at Sydney University I briefly
communicated with 3 or 4 years
ago.so we put these algorithms in
to a microcomputer, hook it to an autopilot and enjoy the ride?
This is all doable right now. It will be
interesting to see if/when the AI beats a human pilot.
See
I don't have the URL to hand but a private group
in northern California quite a few years ago had
large model gliders flying autonomously cross
country doing out and returns and triangles.
IIRC they were doing 50 km or so last time I looked.
I know NASA Dryden (now Armstrong) were looking
at
Yep. No surprises then that this work was kicked off by a glider pilot working
at the university (in a previous life)...
