  2. The Main Idea • SensorFlock is a mobile system for networked micro-air vehicles or in short MAVs. • This system is used for atmospherics sensing of toxic plume, storm dynamics. • The paper talked about avionics, networking, the design of the MAV, the software used for autopilot, and the MAV launch system.

  3. The Main Achievements • What did this work accomplish? • The MAV is designed to achieve low energy consumption with providing a better coverage of monitored field for a relatively long period (about 90 minutes) that is sufficient for used application • What are the contributions? • This system gives a low cost solution for atmospheric sensing of various atmosphere phenomena like storms, tornados, and hurricanes.

  4. The Challenges • The design of the MAV had to be sufficiently lightweight. • Autopilot software design to provide semi-autonomous flight • Ability to make the propulsion, flight control, and wireless networking work together into one intergrated solution

  5. Pictures Figure 1: SensorFlock for 3-D sensing of toxic plumes.

  6. Pictures Figure 9: Multi-vehicle flocking. Vehicle are distributed with gradient field modifications.

  7. Innovation • The system incorporate a very disparate systems together with excellent efficiency which are the propulsion system, flight control, and WSN. • Also the networking code was written to assure quick interaction between MAVs in order to provide more robust system in compact yet efficient way.
