MULTICOPTER PLATFORM - ARDUPILOT TILT/PAN CAMERA ANTENNA CONTROL

domy
domy over 12 years ago

Hello,

 

I have 3 similar projects I need help on software developpement.

The 3 projects uses same platform, Ardupilote Mega 2.6 (if someone has a better platform; welcome for suggestions!)

 

PROJECT 1:  POINTING ANTENNA TO SATELLITE

Hardware: 2 brussless motors like this one

- pointing a gain antenna to a GEO satellite; so the copter is able to communicate BLOS. Tolerance of the satellite is 20 degrés total.

- We shall use the GPS and compas of the Ardupilot; plus th gyros/accelerometers of control Tarot board to stabilize.

 

PROJECT 2:  POINTING CAMERA TO MOVING OBJECT

Hardware: 2 brussless motors like this one

- pointing a camera to a rocket launch, hovering a copter close to launch pad and getting HD video of the launch. Tolerance is very tight as the rackets is up in several seconds…

The rocket will send to the Ardupilot of the copter his position (this is small very rapid rockets toys like here.

 

PROJECT 3:  FINS CONTROL OF ROCKET

- Using 4 servos, we shall control direction of rocket directing the fins properly.

 

Is any interrested in helping or developping this pieces of software?

Can be also paid for your development time.

 

Best regards

Domy

    Hi Dominique Teyssier,

     

    I can Help you out with codes and development of initial prototype board...

     

    I know programming of Gyros, Accelerometers, compass and Servos .... I know programming of PID loop also...

    I familiar with MSP430, Arduino, PSOC and LM4f120-Stellaris platforms...

    www.youtube.com/user/ravibutani03 here you can see some of my small projects....

     

    So I would like to work with you for your projects if further specifications will be provided by you...

    my email ID is ravi.butani@marwadieducation.edu.in
