Tell us a bit about your UAV interest
Our UAV project is called HeX. There are several reasons we wanted to do this at the first place:
First, We found robotic multiple-rotor copters are quit mature with a sophisticated ROS.
Second, with proper airborne peripherals and software, an air robot can accomplish various tasks in industrial, military and civilian uses. So if we put a camera and computer embed an efficient tracking algorithm on HeX to give it an ability to perceive and track a certain target, what this can be used in our lives?
Third, we find X-sports fans love to have someone else to film them when they are doing those spectacular moves. Bingo! would it be cool if HeX can track and film those X-sports fans automatically and it doesn't take a tech pro to set it off?

Then it comes the idea building an portable air robot for X-sports fans and family entertaining events.
Hometown:
Guiyang, Guizhou, China

the design of HeX

This is our design of HeX. with a modular design, it will be very portable and flexible at the lift force it can generate. Users can make it a 3,4,6 rotors copter at their wish and stack all the pieces into a box.

HeX for X-sports fans (conceptual design)

Eva: A new open source autopilot!

                Arduino is awesome, and the autopilots based on them are great. Not only do they support an incredible number of external devices, but also don’t scare away the novice developers. Easy programming and versatility are nice but the cost at which they come at is somewhat of a letdown.…
