In this paper, a formation control method of quadrotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) by vision-based positioning is presented. The relative positions and attitudes of two UAVs with respect to a visual marker attached to the third UAV is estimated by a camera calibration method. Based on the estimated positions and attitudes, two UAVs are controlled to the desired positions to form a given formation with respect to the third UAV. A simplified dynamics model of a quadrotor UAV is utilized to design a controller. The proposed formation control method is validated by an experiment with a motion capture system which provides the ground truth of the position data.
