This research represents the conceptual design of a multirotor control methodology to support observing areas outside direct line-of-sight (LOS) to locate objects of interest in tactical environments. It is hypothesized that design of an interface featuring vector/autopilot control would reduce operator attentional allocation, supporting the maintenance of localized situational awareness.
