Objective

Turn a completed computer vision system to a working one

Due date

24 28 Apr 2021 

Key outcomes

Video streaming to ground station, detection of boxes and pylons, geolocation of pylons, distance measurement of boxes, communication between ground station and aircraft

Status

Relay video back to ground station

• Set up lightbridge on drone

• Connect lightbridge on base

• Connect GoPro to Lightbridge

TBD - Needs to be onsidea) Flash firmware to lightbridge, setup if works.

b) If above fails, setup GoPro with Vtx/VRx setups, try both.

Ryan

Automatically detect pylons and boxes

• Select training data (pylons), collect and select (boxes). (Split video three ways between Aryan (0:47, 1:24, 1:31, 2:03) Addesh (2:04 2:13, 2:47), Ray(3:38, 3:42, 3:55) )

• Define bounding boxes for training.

• Performing training and verification.

• Ensure models are callable from targetAcquisition

Addesh, Aryan, Ray

Communicate pylon locations, turn heading on landing and distance control on ground.

• Verify interface between command module and aircraft with Firmware.

• Setup XBee

• Set up multiprocessing to command module.

Addesh/Shrinjay

Navigate and slow aircraft on taxi

• Measure and record real-pixel width conversion ratio for distance measurement.Calculate apparent focal length using FOV angle

• Define control system, given that we plan to stop before the boxes, how do we plan to turn distance information into
