Smartphone App Interface for Autonomous Drone for Civilian Applications Advisor(s): Jesus Pestana, Michael Maurer, Friedrich Fraundorfer Institute for Computer Graphics and Vision (ICG) Graz University of Technology, Austria Project highlights: At the ICG, we have developed drone software to enable autonomous real-time mapping and immediate safe navigation during flight. Video: http://bit.ly/2dtmrOw We need you to develop an innovative Android user interface to ease the deployment of the drone in real-world civilian applications (e.g. infrastructure and powerline inspection) Deployment equipment: Drone, Radio Remote Control and Android Tablet Use existing reliable communication link to communicate with the drone Objectives Visualize mission execution information: 3D resconstruction, obstacle map, drone position and points of interest Send commands to the drone using touch interface: position of point of interest, next go-to location, next task (e.g. fly to safe altitude, land on given position or landing platform) Show text-based execution information to ease design and testing We are open to your suggestions!!!
