The AI Tracking Guidance Module is an advanced intelligent tracking and guidance system designed for FPV drones, multirotor platforms, and fixed‑wing aircraft. It integrates a high‑performance camera, onboard AI processing unit, and flight‑control interface to deliver autonomous target recognition, automatic tracking, and precision guidance.
By combining computer vision with flight‑control algorithms, the module significantly reduces pilot workload and enhances tracking accuracy in both manual and autonomous missions.
The module “can autonomously recognize and automatically track targets (Human, Vehicles, FPV, Fixed‑wing aircraft)” and improves locking accuracy through intelligent algorithms.
Features

Automatic recognition of typical targets: humans, vehicles, FPV drones, fixed‑wing aircraft
-
Manual cursor‑based target selection
-
Automatic lock‑on, re‑selection, and continuous tracking
-
Works even in GPS‑denied environments
3. One‑Button Autonomous Flight (PX4 Only)
-
Autonomous takeoff via RC switch
-
Climbs to a configurable altitude (default 10 m)
-
Automatically detects and locks onto targets within the camera’s field of view

Installation Guidelines
1. Camera Angle Setup
-
Recommended upward tilt: 20°
-
Quick method: Tilt the aircraft to 20°, adjust the camera until the crosshair aligns with an object 5 m away at the same height.
2. GNSS + Compass Module (Optional)
-
Install away from the AI module and power wiring
-
Use a magnetic ring on the GPS cable to reduce interference
-
Manual includes a detailed installation diagram
