Description
Daedalean set out to create a robotic pilot that can outperform the Human on every task as tested in the Commercial Helicopter Pilot skill test, on the principle that if you want to replace the human weaknesses by an automatic system, you have to outperform her on her strenghts first. This requires bringing modern robotics, computer vision and deep learning to the very conservative world of safety critical avionics.
