Tutorial Overview

Autonomous drones and robots rely on advanced vision systems to safely navigate, map environments, avoid obstacles, and make real-time decisions. This tutorial explores the imaging technologies powering next-generation UAVs and vision-guided robots, from collision avoidance and simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) to depth sensing, infrared imaging, and visual navigation systems.

The tutorial also examines the image sensor technologies that improve machine perception in demanding environments, including embedded HDR, global shutter operation, near-infrared sensitivity, and indirect time-of-flight (iToF) sensing. Alongside practical examples of industrial robots, autonomous mobile robots, and commercial drone platforms, the guide highlights how onsemi Hyperlux image sensors help designers improve accuracy, reduce motion artifacts, optimize bandwidth, and expand autonomous capabilities across robotics and aerial systems.
