WashUAV Helicopter Sean Reynolds March 23, 2009
Ambitious Goals • Stable Hover • Flight • Obstacle Avoidance
Stable Hover • Data collection for Neural Network • Data computation and refinement of Neural Network • Testing Neural Network on Helicopter
NN Design Architecture • 3 Accelerometer: X,Y,Z • 2 Gyro: X,Y • 1 Compass Heading • Throttle • Aileron • Elevator • Rudder
Obstacles • Ground effect and takeoff vs. in flight aerodynamics • Teaching myself to fly the new helicopter • Controlling the helicopter enough to hover indoors.
Prior Work • Stanford Helicopter Team Project • Australia ANN Autonomous Hover • Full Scale Helicopter using Neural Network • International Aerial Robotics Competition, $10,000 • WashUAV progress.
