Abstract
This paper explores the practical considerations and challenges involved in achieving autonomous 3D reconstruction utilizing small Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) through the framework of Structure from Motion (SFM). The utilization of small UAVs equipped with lightweight cameras presents a promising resource for cost-effective and rapid 3D mapping in various domains such as disaster response, infrastructure inspection, and search and rescue. In this study, the critical practical aspects of this process, including height level for taking images, UAV selection, number of images, image acquisition strategies, and computational time. The effectiveness and limitations of autonomous 3D reconstruction with small UAVs through practical insights are summarized, with discussions on potential advancements and areas for future research. This paper serves as a guide for researchers interested in utilizing small UAVs for autonomous 3D reconstruction tasks applications.
