Abstract
A method of controlling flight of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) includes collecting, while the UAV traverses a flight path, a set of images corresponding to different fields of view of an environment around the UAV using multiple image capture devices. Each of the multiple image capture devices includes one of the different fields of view. The method further includes extracting a set of feature points from the set of images and selecting a subset of feature points from the set of feature points to be stored based on a number of image capture devices that collect images including the subset of feature points to aid navigation of the UAV.
