Return to Perseus III

This zip file contains most of the control documents from Fall Semester 2014. Included are our Functional Specification, Concept Generation and Selection, Project Schedule, and others relevant documents that we used during the project.

Final Report

Below is a zip file containing the code we used to control the systems. Note that there are also configuration files that may not be included here. In other words, don't go reformating the pi willy-nilly, and always back it up! Camera control files are found in the MissionControl directory. Scripts for starting and loading various systems are found in the scripts directory. Everything else is code libraries we need or configuration file backups.
code.zip
These two files are for the camera controller, they are also in the zip file above. The pdf tells you how to use it. Rename the rtf to a .py to use the other file. I couldn't upload it as a txt or a py file. cameracontroller.pdf cameracontroller.rtf

Flight Systems

• Fly the Y6 in autopilot mode
• Integrate the Pi and Pixhawk onto the Y6.
• Test the performance of the integrated system.
• Evaluate Props and determine if we need to get better ones.

Mission Systems

• Research how the Pixhawk connects to the Raspberry Pi
• Make a cable to hook the PI to the Pixhawk
• Buy a new Raspberry Pi camera…the old one stopped working, and so we are currently using the IR Raspberry Pi camera.
• Determine how to send data over the 4G cellular network
• Begin GNU Radio spectrum analyzer implementation
• Order an RTL-SDR Tv-Tuner Chip for use with GNU Radio
• Decide how to power the Modem and Wifi Receiver on the Raspberry Pi.
