Autonomy

• Nov 16/17 flight test

  • Get IR images from the drone

  • Test Geolocation with local logging. (GPS coords are saved on pi, then processed to kml later after extracting log files from pi)

• Cluster estimation merged, should be able to get tested next week (23rd)

• IR detection is in progress

  • Tasks delegated last week, will check up

• Communication to ground is in progress

  • Looking at FTP, although this writes files to the Pixhawk itself: this solution means writing a file to the pixhawk, then having the ground station read this file from the pixhawk later

• Guided mode testing

  • Have the drone deviate from original mission path using guided mode, then resume the mission from a new location
