[Canberrauav] From Tonight's meetup Stephen Dade stephen_dade at hotmail.com Mon Nov 19 22:58:38 EST 2012 Hi everyone, We've come up with a list of sub-projects to focus on over the next 6 months. I've also put the sub-project "managers" (for lack of a better word) in brackets. Catapult system for the X8 UAV (Jack/Tridge) FPV technologies (Tridge) COFDM-based system for digital video transmission (Dave) D-GPS for increased positioning accuracy (Tridge) ADS-B receiver for sense-and-avoid of other aircraft (Tridge) (Automatic) tracking antenna for ground station (Jack/Matt) Pan/Tilt/Rectract camera mount (Chris/Matt) Radar system for terrain tracking and object avoidance (Steve) Ardurover-based truck for launching the X8 (Steve) Assisting local schools with their UAV programs (Dickson College and Gungahlin College so far) (Tridge/Jack/Andrew Moss) Weather Station for CMAC (Tridge/Jack) Github wiki and documentation system (Chris/Michael) MHV Quadcopter project (Steve) If anyone from the wider community is interested in being a part of any of these projects, we would love to have as many people involved as possible! You can either email this list or the specific sub-project managers above with your interest. We are planning to use Github for our source code and documentation management. Look for the CanberraUAV group on Github for details. Thanks Stephen
