We present CineMPC, an algorithm to autonomously control a UAV-borne video camera in a nonlinear Model Predicted Control (MPC) loop. CineMPC controls both the position and orientation of the camera-the camera extrinsics-as well as the lens focal length, focal distance, and aperture-the camera intrinsics. While some existing solutions autonomously control the position and orientation of the camera,...
