Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) navigation requires Machine Vision Systems to determine physical values of near distanced objects. These machine vision systems must respond in sufficiently amount of time using less scanning data from the observed objects. A novel Technical Vision System (TVS), which uses DC motors and laser triangulation to determine spatial coordinates of these objects, is offered and used for UAV navigation. Present paper thereby shows the implementation of open-loop control algorithm, to position the TVS laser ray in the UAV Field of View (FOV). Issues of this implementation, experimental realization and results are presented, as the theoretical concept of a continuous FOV derived.
