Hardware problems

  • Battery died

– Leaving it for a month mostly fixed it

  • Bad ESC

– Thanks Emilio for a replacement

Globalcontrol

  • High level interface
  • Connect Raspberry PI

to STM32

  • Communicate using

UAVObjects

  • Containing data

and settings

Globalcontrol applications

  • Record video when armed

– Other conditions also possible

  • Attach barometer to Raspberry PI

– I2C didn't work on STM32 – Raspberry PI sends the data to STM32

Face detection

  • Face detection using Raspberry PI camera
  • About 4 fps
  • Marker detection also possible
  • But not finished

PID Tuning

  • Took a lot of time!
  • Problems:

– Motors rotating in wrong direction – Bad ESC – Easy to break the frame in the process

  • Lots of trial and error
  • Quite stable now :)
