Development Of A Pc Controlled Autonomous Aerial Robot

Abstract

The currently employed autonomous aerial robot uses a complex system of GPS(Global Positioning System), INS(Inertial Navigation System), pressure meter, and so on. Also, the aerial robot carries the control algorithm in FCC(Flight Control Computers). However, in the case of a small aerial robot or MAV(Micro Air vehicle), it is impossible to load these bulky payloads due to the physical limitations. Therefore, this research sets its objectives on making the simplest and smallest autonomous aerial robot. For this project, we tried to build a PC-Controlled Autonomous Aerial Robot. The project provides an opportunity for the high school student to perform a broad range of engineering activities with guidance of trained graduate students.
