We are confirmed to compete in AEAC Student Competition in Medicine Hat, Alberta in May 2025!
Competition Architecture Syncs will be on Thursdays 8pm in E5-2103 and online.
See updated Autonomy roadmap here: 2024-09-27 Autonomy Roadmap - UPDATED after comp sync
Obstacle avoidance flight test on 9-28
Did not run: the buck converter which converts the battery’s 12V to 5V for the pi broke
Need to ground test the whole system earlier before flight test day
Instead, collected some LiDAR data of particular scenes → Andrew Shum Vyomm Khanna
Also started raining, pegasus tuning done halfway, needs more testing
✈️ Upcoming Flight Tests
Will run autonomy system on Houston
Running geolocation: seems that bugs are mostly fixed ← explain geolocation and our current airside system?
Ground test result?
Test detect landing pads for now
Test between both CV and ML model for detection (see if they both work)
Fly in a circle? Jane Zeng ← explain Ardupilot (drone) ↔︎ mavlink ↔︎ MissionPlanner (ground)
May be moved to next week depending on availability
Fly cluster estimation with geolocation
Switch waypoints mid-flight, pathing to switch modes (circle mode to auto for switching between flying a ring and flying to the next ring)
Competition Task 1 flight test on
