s210: and calculating the horizontal distance between the unmanned aerial vehicle and the central position according to the corresponding position and the central position of the infrared beacon in the target image, and determining the position of the unmanned aerial vehicle.
Different from the prior art, the central position is calculated through the plurality of cameras, the obtained calculation result and the position of the unmanned aerial vehicle are more accurate, and accurate attitude adjustment information is sent to guide the unmanned aerial vehicle to land.
S220: and calculating the vertical height of the relative landing area of the unmanned aerial vehicle according to the corresponding positions of the infrared beacons in the plurality of target images and the wide angle information of the cameras.
According to the invention, the vertical height information can be accurately calculated creatively according to the wide-angle information of the camera and the position of the infrared beacon; and under the calculation of a plurality of cameras, the accuracy is higher.

The method is approximate to estimate the height, the accuracy cannot be guaranteed, and the reliability is reduced.
S300: and determining the attitude adjustment information of the unmanned aerial vehicle according to the position and the vertical height of the unmanned aerial vehicle.
Wherein the state adjustment information includes adjustment instructions of displacement and angle. The displacement comprises course, speed and displacement distance, the speed refers to the flying speed of the unmanned aerial vehicle in the horizontal direction to the center position of the landing area, and the course refers to the flying direction of the unmanned aerial vehicle.

The adjustment range refers to the airspeed of control unmanned aerial vehicle, for example, when vertical height is great, unmanned aerial vehicle's operating space is abundant, can control unmanned aerial vehicle fast flight and reach the calibration position. When vertical height is great, unmanned aerial vehicle's operating space is less, needs to reduce unmanned aerial vehicle's flying speed, slowly reaches the calibration position, improves the accuracy.
S400: and controlling the unmanned aerial vehicle according to the attitude adjustment information so that the unmanned aerial vehicle accurately lands in a landing area.
The steerable unmanned aerial vehicle of terminal flies to the top of descending the region earlier, controls unmanned aerial vehicle again and descends to the descending region from the top of descending the region.

It should be noted that the invention also provides a technical means for identifying the infrared beacon of the unmanned aerial vehicle. The reason for developing the technical means is that when the unmanned aerial vehicle is applied to outdoor places, interference sources emitting infrared light, such as the sun or other equipment, exist in the environment.
The research of the applicant finds that in a scene that the unmanned aerial vehicle is guided to land outdoors, when weather is clear, the infrared camera shoots infrared light in the full-wave band light of the sun. Therefore, when the terminal identifies the infrared beacon of the unmanned aerial vehicle, a plurality of target infrared points exist in a target image, so that the infrared beacon of the unmanned aerial vehicle cannot be identified and guidance cannot be performed; or sending wrong attitude adjustment information to cause the unmanned aerial vehicle to land wrongly.
Therefore, the method also comprises the following steps of identifying the ambient infrared light interference source, and the invention provides the following three technical means for solving the ambient infrared interference source:

S520: and identifying whether an abnormal infrared light source exists in the target image set, and if so, marking the abnormal infrared light source as an ambient infrared light interference source.
The applicant researches and discovers that the longer distance of sunlight is theoretically a vertical light source, and when the sunlight is imaged in a plurality of infrared cameras, infrared points of the sunlight are all in the same position (namely, the positions of the sunlight in different target images are the same, for example, four target images have an infrared point which is positioned at the upper left in each image); and the infrared beacon distance that is different from unmanned aerial vehicle is nearer, because of the position difference of infrared camera, the position of infrared beacon in the target image that the infrared camera of difference was shot is all inequality.
Therefore, sunlight can be identified by identifying abnormal infrared light sources in a plurality of target images of the target image set, and an ambient infrared light interference source is obtained; the infrared beacon of the unmanned aerial vehicle can be confirmed by eliminating ambient infrared light interference sources.

The visible light camera is used for acquiring a plurality of environment images; and a plurality of infrared cameras correspondingly acquire a plurality of target images.
S620: and comparing the environmental image with the target image, and identifying to obtain an environmental infrared interference source.
Taking the sun as an example, the visible light camera can shoot the sun but cannot sample the light signal of the infrared beacon. Therefore, through comparison, the infrared position of the sun in the infrared camera and the visible light camera and the infrared beacon position of the unmanned aerial vehicle can be identified.
S630: and identifying and determining the position of the infrared beacon of the unmanned aerial vehicle in the target image according to the ambient infrared light interference source.

s730: and comparing a plurality of continuous-time target images of the single camera, identifying the infrared beacon of the unmanned aerial vehicle in the target images based on the flickering of the infrared beacon, and determining the position of the infrared beacon of the unmanned aerial vehicle in the target images.
The infrared beacons flash at a preset frequency, and in the shot target images with continuous time, the former target image has the infrared beacon, and the latter target image does not have the infrared beacon. Whether the infrared beacons in the multiple target images are developed or not and the development positions are identified through comparison so as to identify the infrared beacons of the unmanned aerial vehicle and distinguish the ambient infrared light interference sources.
