DIY Drones: From Circuit to Sky
Summary: This session delves into the practical aspects of developing Do-It-Yourself (DIY) drones, bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and hands-on application. We will explore the essential hardware components, including motors, controllers, and power systems, and analyze their electrical engineering principles. We'll navigate the landscape of open-source software and coding environments, showcasing how to program flight controllers and integrate sensor data. Furthermore, we will discuss the selection and integration of various sensors, such as GPS, accelerometers, and cameras, to perform diverse tasks, from environmental monitoring to aerial photography. This session aims to empower participants with the knowledge and skills to design, build, and customize their own drones, fostering a deeper understanding of embedded systems, control theory, and practical applications within the realm of electrical engineering. By examining real-world applications and addressing the challenges of drone development, we will inspire innovation and highlight the future potential of this rapidly evolving field.
