The purpose of this project is to create an autonomous aerial drone in a multidisciplinary team composed of electrical/computer engineering students as well as mechanical/aerospace engineering students. The original objectives of this project were provided by our project sponsor, Lockheed Martin. The main objective was to create an autonomous drone to navigate through an obstacle course consisting of a ring, a pylon, a double-pylon, and an acoustic waypoint.
Caleb Jones is a computer engineer that focused on training the object detection algorithm and for integrating the ROS software on the drone control computer.
Hamza Siddiqui is a computer engineer that focused on sound triangulation, wireless communications, and drone commands.
Rishi Jain is an electrical engineer that focused on the PCB/microcontroller, sensors, and general integration.
Ryan Lucas is an electrical engineer that focused on the power system, motors/battery, and testing of components.
We would also like to thank Aaron Phu (MAE), George Loubimov (MAE), and Dr. Richie (ECE) for their guidance over the past two semesters.
