Abstract
A computer-implemented method for controlling a UAV includes identifying a set of target markers based on a plurality of images captured by an imaging device carried by the UAV, and controlling the UAV to fly based on the set of target markers. The set of target markers include at least two or more types of target markers and are in close proximity to be detected within a same field of view of the imaging device. Controlling the UAV to fly includes controlling the UAV to approach the set of target markers based at least in part on a spatial relationship between the UAV and a first type of target marker; and determining whether to control the UAV to land at or near the set of target markers based on information conveyed by a second type of target marker.
