Autonomous Drone Tracks Target with AI Software | Computer Vision in Action

Описание: In this demo, I showcase an AI-powered thermal tracking system mounted on a drone — this time tracking a deer in a real-world outdoor environment.

🎯 With just a simple operator input, the drone locks onto a heat signature and autonomously follows the moving target. This real-time tracking demonstrates how AI and thermal imaging technologies can enhance wildlife observation, autonomous surveillance, and search & rescue missions — especially in low-visibility or nighttime scenarios.

🛠️ Key Features:

Thermal camera-based target acquisition

Real-time object tracking using Python + OpenCV

Click-to-lock interface

Compatible with Raspberry Pi, Jetson Nano, and similar embedded devices

Designed for autonomous UAV and robotics applications
