Teaching Method
The course will be experimental with lectures to provide the underlining theory. The students will work in teams of 3-4 on theory and laboratory exercises. The exercise results will lead to a mini project where the students will design, construct and operate a multirotor drone and camera payload, and post-process video footage using computer vision algorithms.

Additional information
Enrolment is limited to 20 students. If more applicants than places, applicants who meet the mandatory requirements are prioritised according to the below selection criteria:
- Undergraduate and graduate students from partner universities (exchange); international undergraduate and graduate guest students (fee-paying); undergraduate and graduate students from other Danish universities.
- Ph.D students from partner universities and other international Ph.D. students; other applicants.
Students are prioritised on a first-come-first-served basis, i.e. according to the time we receive your complete application.
In case a course is filled up, we try to offer you an alternative course from your list of priorities. All final decisions about admission will be sent out continually.
