| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, it was aimed to realize a path planning method of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV) in order to measure an huge infrastructure facility considering the unstable movement of UAV and the measurement accuracy.
As results of this research, a path planning method of a UAV was realized, where a measurement point as a waypoint was generated to ensure the measurement accuracy considering the specification of a sensor and the UAV's movement influenced by wind. In addition, the generation method of measurement points was improved by applying a clustering method in order to measure the whole surface of the target. The usefulness of the proposed method was shown through some simulation and experimental results with a real aerial robot in this research.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
インフラ点検や災害現場では飛行ロボットを用いた環境計測が急速に進むが、人手不測の解消や点検の効率化には飛行ロボットが自動点検できる機能が必要となる。本研究はその第一歩として、計測対象を与えられた計測精度で漏れなく計測するための計測点の自動生成と移動経路計画手法に取り組んだ。現在は人間が手動でUAVを操縦しインフラ点検を行っているが、非常に時間と手間がかかるのが実情である。ロボットによる自動点検技術を確立することで、多くの老朽化したインフラ設備を短時間かつ低コストで点検でき、老朽化インフラによる大規模災害などを未然に防ぐことが可能となる。
