Abstract:
With the introduction of U-Space, upcoming drone flight controllers are required to combine safety, autonomy and human interaction with evaluable regulatory compliance. In these regards, testing drones in virtual environments is a promising approach to enhance the development of drone controllers. With virtual drone test environments being actively developed, questions concerning general validity arise including a) how drone-testing scenarios should be described, set up and executed in a transferable manner and b) what conclusion developers and regulators can draw from such experiments. This poster discusses potential benefits and interim results for creating, executing and later evaluating scenarios for virtual drone testing environments. The work includes early stages on the research on scenario content and simulation execution concept.
