VLN on the Fly: An Onboard Vision-Language Navigation Stack for Aerial Robots

The authors propose VLN on the Fly, an onboard vision-language navigation stack that keeps instruction grounding, planning, and control as separately inspectable stages: a quantized VLM grounds the instruction to a coarse image cell, depth lifts it to a 3D goal, a fast B-spline planner generates a feasible trajectory, and a pretrained reinforcement learning policy tracks the trajectory and outputs motor commands across multiple quadrotors.
