Landing Pad

-Data and video labelling

-Model Training

  • Working model by end of december (trained/testable)

  • Set up Pi on the 7th for flight test on the 8th

  • Submit request before EOY

GUI

-Demo with map

-Data integration

-QR scanner for T1 (restricted area)

  • Live map position and numbers (altitude, GPS coords) - end of december

  • with telemetry: second iteration done with all data live by end of first week of Feb.

  • Confirm hardware with testing or order if we’re not using WARG laptop before Feb (comp sim)

Telemetry

-Mock module

-EFS issues (anthony?)

-Routing/deciphering for position data: end of december

-Jetson/ZP comms after ground side (or once winter term start). End of Jan

  • CV groundside only

  • Telemetry is blocking GUI validation, Jan 13th (?!)

Path Op

-Demo comparison

-Reinforcement model for T2

-EFS discussion for T1 and just general implementation

Demo models with mock data/simulators by mid/late december

  • Task 1 done in a vacuum

  • No updates on Task 2/QR code

Lidar research

-general research schedule

-low prio

-Buy a LIDAR and demo by Feb??

 

Ardupilot

~0

-Pull people from path auton/GUI?

-maybe set a hard deadline and then grab ppl for it

-Last resort: draft the LIDAR team

  • We need to choose by Mid jan/feb for system integration

  • Use ardupilot ground system if ours is incomplete

  • (add ardupilot waypoints without human input)

  • System integration (landing, takeoff etc.)

  • Feb

  • Use mission planner GUI as altitude control

  • Backup telemetry link in case of ZP failure

  • Switchover decision by Mid Jan- Jan 27th, pull people if we switch

Auton Landing

-Fisheye correction

-landing pad size

-find distance

-handle other distortion issues caused by single camera

-final step would be converting to vector for ZP/ardupilot

Distance vector from video footage by end of december

  • Some demo code done, create kitchen sinks repo and add to it

 Integration Deadlines

Anything for first competition sim by JAN 27 (non negotiable)
By this we probably want Jetson/ZP comms, basic GUI, and landing pad model integrated
Bidirectional data telemetry
auton landing converting vector to ZP commands
Path optimization algo done by this date
Actually make the simulation (list of waypoints, QR code, etc)
