A foreign object on an airport runway is also called a foreign object, that is, some foreign material, debris or object that may cause damage to the aircraft, such as scattered aircraft parts, luggage parts, wildlife, etc. On airport runway, there are mainly the activities of aircraft, less activities of human. As a result, most of the foreign objects on runway are parts that fall off the aircraft, mostly made of metal. Due to the strong suction of aircraft engines and high speed crushing of tires during take-off and landing, aircraft is relatively fragile compared with foreign bodies, and the presence of foreign bodies on the runway can cause serious damage to the structure of aircraft. A tiny object sucked into the engine could cause damage to the blades, and debris could accumulate in the machinery, affecting the plane’s normal operation. In view of the above problems, the research and realization of the FOD detector of airport runway are carried out in depth.
