Quadcopters

March 21, 2015

This post describes the entire working of Quadcopters in a nutshell. The steps which my team followed during the entire process are shown below in a general format. It only describes the pre-requisites of each phase. As a final year project or any engineering project, "Autonomous control of an Aerial platform" has taken heights, right after the advent of Drones. However it is really difficult to realize such controls. Moreover few people like Jeff Rowberg, Oscar Liang have worked on it and that too on Arduino Platform. Before going into the complicacies associated with the research here is a brief description of the objective. The aim is to construct an aerial platform and embed certain algorithms which can autonomously control the platform when on flight. Here the platform is selected as a Quadcopter. After construction of frame and mounting of parts like Electronic Speed Controllers, Brushless DC Motors, it is required to get the sensors and controls ready. Sensors

A journey begins when a single person sets foot for the lust of knowing what was not known. Flowers come on the way and so comes the great sand dunes. The thirsty traveller dugs out new path and doorways to wisdom. With each step, the person feels new to the world, captures every fast moving moment into a still photography. At every cross road the person sees a new life, a new horizontal fall. The sightseer ends at the Full Circles- a return to the starting point. He is no longer alone now. The journey begins again with more hands this time, more chameleons, reflecting the environment- a 360 degree fusion.
