MAV with two propeller

In order to counter the rotating torque from the previous single rotor version, one more propeller is added. The second propeller rotates counter clockwise and both torques will cancel each other (Only if both propellers are rotating at same speed).

My single rotor MAV :)

This is a small MAV (Micro Areal Vehicle) I created out of simple household stuffs. Though this one can’t be controlled, it is fun to watch it fly. :) :) :)

Warehouse Management System using Drones

This is a project I had completed while doing internship at EY. The idea is to automate inventory and the stock checking process without any human intervention. Today these are all done using human resource. This is a really tiresome work because it involves manually inspecting each pallet (box) and read the QR/Bar code associated with it.

Controlling Parrot Bebop using ROS Kinetic

Parrot Bebop drone is much stable while comparing with the most widely used AR Drone. Due to ROS support and its open API AR Drone was widely used in the research community.

Searching and Precision Landing of AR Drone 2.0 using Neural Network | Gazebo | ROS

This video is a part of an AR Drone autonomous landing project. Here the AR Drone is controlling itself so that the landing platform is exactly in the middle so that it can initiate a proper landing. Here AR Drone is also tracking the Tag embedded on the landing platform (Not using the inbuilt tag detection. The tag that is being used here is from the ar_track_alvar package.). This is implemented using Neural Network. (The video is playing at a slightly faster rate.)
