      <h2>Who We Are</h2>
      <p>
        The Perception subteam gives the drone its "eyes." We develop the
        computer vision pipelines that let the drone see the world below,
        identify competition targets, and feed spatial information back to
        the autonomy stack.
      </p>
      <p>
        We work with onboard cameras, train detection models, and implement
        real-time inference pipelines that must run reliably at altitude
        while the drone is flying autonomously.

          Training and deploying object detection models (e.g., YOLO-based) to
          locate and classify competition targets — shapes, letters, colors, and
          objects — from aerial imagery.

          Computing GPS coordinates of detected targets by combining camera
          geometry, drone pose (GPS + attitude), and ground-plane projection.

        <h3>🚧 Obstacle Avoidance Vision</h3>
        <p style="font-size:0.95rem; color:#c4dcc4; margin-top:0.35rem;">
          Detecting and localizing aerial obstacles (e.g., balloon obstacles in
          SUAS) using camera feeds so the autonomy stack can plan safe paths.

          Building labeled datasets of aerial imagery and training detection
          models. We use simulation renders and real field data to improve
          model robustness.
