Abstract: There are still some issues existing in current path planning of UAV, such as planning result simulation verification and 3D visualization. To solve the problems, a 3D real-time visualization and simulation platform for collaborative path planning of UAV was proposed. The target area was divided and calculated. The reconnaissance beam of UAV was modeled with virtual camera, the intersection points obtained quickly based on graphics hardware. The terrain mesh was calculated by scan-line polygon filling algorithm, reconnaissance information was recorded and analyzed, and the color temperature maps were given. Through the actual operation by the simulation platform, simulation results verify that the simulation platform provides a practical means of visualization simulation and verification for traditional collaborative path planning.
