FlowPilot: Real-Time World-Action Modeling for Agile UAV Navigation

FlowPilot: Real-Time World-Action Modeling for Agile UAV Navigation

Summary

This research presents FlowPilot, the first world-action model designed for real-time onboard UAV navigation using depth data.

Editorial context

The paper introduces FlowPilot, a world-action model for real-time UAV navigation that jointly denoises depth and trajectories using flow matching; it reports closed-loop simulation performance under clutter up to 10 m/s and physical deployment on a quadrotor with 10.2 ms inference latency on a Jetson Orin NX.

FlowPilot is trained on a three-level depth pyramid spanning high-throughput simulation, photorealistic simulation, and real onboard data. In closed-loop simulation, it outperforms learning- and optimization-based baselines under increasing clutter and commanded speeds up to 10 m/s. On a physical quadrotor, FlowPilo
