Repository Contents:

• python_wrapper: Task 1

  • Description: Platform-independent and User-friendly Python API to communicate with the drone developed by transforming the ROS-based communication architecture

• vision_based_PID: Task 2

  • Description: Within this directory, you'll find implementations related to a vision-based Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller. It includes algorithms and utilities tailored for vision-based control systems, enabling precise control by leveraging visual feedback. In this task, we developed a multi-axis PID controller using vision feedback. We achieved stable hovering and accomplished the rectangular motion of a single drone.

• vision_based_swarming: Task 3

  • Description: This directory contains code and resources for vision-based swarming algorithms. It encompasses techniques and algorithms that enable multiple agents or entities to coordinate and navigate collectively using visual information. We developed a Telnet interface for swarm communication and a PID class for simultaneous control of multiple UAVs.

• collected_data_and_plotting: post-flight analytics dashboard

  • Description: The data from every experiment was collected, and a post-flight analytics dashboard was created using Plotly. This facilitated the controller tuning process and identification of any unusual behavior in the drone.
