This FP6 project finished this year. It was managed by Dassault Aviation and grouped many industrial and academic partners (Alenia Aeronautica, Eurocopter, EADS, Walphot, I3S, EPFL, ETHZ, IST, JSI). It was concerned with the automatic landing of fixed wing aircrafts and helicopters using a vision sensor. In this project, we were the leader of the workpackage devoted to visual tracking and visual servoing. The scientific work realized in this project is described in Sections  6.1.5 and  6.4.2 .
