When a disaster occurred, the rescue team needs to gather information as soon as possible. However, due to the risk of secondary disaster, it is difficult to enter the stricken area. Therefore, information gathering method using robot has been researched lately. In this study, we focus on a information gathering method using small sized unmanned aero robots. When operating multi robots, we need to place one person to operate one robot, which is inefficient. If the robots can move autonomously, it might reduce the burden of the operator. Thus, we propose an algorithm for autonomous flight control of the robots and to give the robots an ability to identify the exploration area by themselves.
