Testing new camera
We have a non-global shutter RPi Camera we need to test on the drone
Autonomy should try geolocation as well, need to get script ready
Should acquire data of just images (with nothing overlayed) so we can test algorithms
Note: Geolocation with the CV camera will be tested FIRST as it requires more setup. Then the CV camera will be swapped out for the IR camera, and the IR camera will be used to capture images.
Tracking Antenna
Must be tested and verified before 2024-11-06 to include in this flight test Omer Sajid
Pre Flight Test validations
Test drone selected - Houston chosen
Determine and setup link OTA link on Houston, RFD or ELRS
E2E Mavlink connection established (drone → mavproxy → mission planner + tracking antenna)
Basic tracking works (tracking antenna follows drone being walked in a 180° arc around it)
If ready, can be tested alongside another Flight Card to decrease necessary flights
Testing object detection?
Awaiting confirmation from Andrew Shum
