Robustification of Vision-Based Drone Navigation
VIO system are used to navigate drones in GPS denied environments. These systems are, however, prone to failure, for example due to loss of feature tracking. This will result in a crash, as the drone has no knowledge about its own state. However, if the drone manges to hold its position without the VIO system for some time, the VIO pipeline can be reinitialised and the navigation task can continue. Additionally, it will also prevent a crash, increasing the safety. The images from the camera and IMU data are usually still available when the VIO pipeline crashes.

Design of a system that is capable of stabilizing a drone without relying on VIO or GPS, but instead use salvageable information from an IMU, vision sensor and/or any other available source.
