WEEK FIVE
The fifth week was spent in working on the PCB design and Eagle CAD.
I had a couple of errors and problems while I was learning this program, but I completed the board and started working on making final design changes to the PCB.
I was trying to test out my code further, and made some minor changes during this week. This week was also spent in coming up with ideas about different design consideration aspects for integration with the robot.
April Lab attended a seminar session with Dr. Vijay Kumar on small flying UAV robots.
"Robotics Seminar Thursday, July 10th, 11am
Aerial Robot Swarms
Prof. Vijay Kumar, Univ. of Pennsylvania
Autonomous micro aerial robots can operate in three-dimensional, indoor and outdoor environments, with applications to search and rescue, first response and precision farming. I will provide an overview of our work, and describe the challenges in developing small, agile robots and our recent work in the areas of (a) control and planning, (b) state estimation and mapping, and (c) coordinating large teams of robots.
