TU Delft - Autonomous Quadrotor

TU Delft - Autonomous Quadrotor

On 3 September 2012 two student teams of the Delft University of Technology, under guidance of M. Wisse and Ir. B. D. W. Remes, started with a UAV robotics project. Each team would have a slightly different initial objective. After completing this objective each team will be free to set its own objectives for the next phase of this project.

Objectives

Our first objective is to enable the Parrot AR Drone v2.0 (from now on referred to as the AR Drone 2) to fly autonomously on the Paparazzi Software. To achieve this we need to describe a new board configuration within for Paparazzi to work with.

Furthermore we want to add a GPS sensor to the AR Drone 2. We will use the US Globalsat BU-353 GPS receiver for this purpose.
