Abstract
Aerial navigation based on computer vision is a subject in constant development. It aims to identify the localization of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle based on aerial images captured during flight. This paper employs a fuzzy-based application to identify landmarks, using the ORB algorithm, which uses descriptors for the neighborhood of keypoints to identify specific registered objects on a scene. In Addition to the keypoint matching from ORB, a fuzzy system is used to analyze each match, in order to guarantee the proper identification of the landmark.
