Setup:
New Member Onboarding is the onboarding package, please follow all steps here!
Current CV Architecture Overview:
2022 Computer Vision Architecture Overview and 2021-2022 Computer Vision Architecture are our old architecture documents, but I think it's still very useful because the concepts are similar.
2022-2023 Computer Vision Architecture is our current architecture.
Geolocation
Object Detection
Data-Telemetry
https://github.com/UWARG/computer-vision-python https://github.com/UWARG/IMACS are two main GitHub repos that we are working on
List of Projects:
*note you NOTE: You are responsible for the documentation of any code you write
Ground station - Implementation of Data Telemetry System
Ground station - interface (GUI)Desktop Application
Landing Pad Detection - ML
Transport path optimization Path Optimization - Graph Theory
Autonomous Landing R&D → detect landing pad → get distance → obstacle detection and avoidance
