Content

Using 6+2 newly built flying robots (quadrocopters) with RGBD camera, onboard PC Odroid XU4 and autopilot hardware Pixhawk and a stationary IR tracking system, tasks such as simple flight control, autonomous hover, takeoff and landing, visual odometry, etc. are implemented. Most tasks will be performed first in a simulation system, then with real quadrocopters in an area separated by capture nets separated area of the large robotics laboratory.

Objectives

The students independently develop and implement algorithms for sensor data evaluation, flight control, self-localisation and visual odometry of flying robots in small groups. They acquire competences in the areas of problem-solving behaviour, teamwork, time management, programming skills and presentation skills.
