An aerial system having an obstacle detection and avoidance system is described herein. The obstacle detection and avoidance system includes a pair of ultra-wide angle lens cameras orientated coaxially along an optical axis. Each ultra-wide angle lens camera includes a field-of-view lens having a vertical angle of view greater than 180 degrees. The pair of ultra-wide angle lens cameras is orientated such that a portion of each corresponding camera field-of-view overlaps to define a viewable region of interest including overlapping vertical field angle.
