Hey i want to share with you an open source project that i am working on .
I am a student in the computer science department and me and my friend took a project last semester in the image processing lab at our university.
Our goal was to create a law budget drone that will fly to specific GPS location caring a package then it will scan the area for a 'bullseye target' and will land in the center of the target and will safely deliver the package to her destination .(You know like amazon prime air service)
We decided to use Pixhawk controller and Odrroid computer .
We wanted to use dronekit sdk for communication between our Odroid computer and the Pixhawk .
our problem was that we wanted to create a real time system that involved image processing to find the center of the target and python is not the best solution for that .
consider that dronekit mainly written in python we had to find a solution to combine cpp and python in order to accomplish our mission .
I am very proud about what we have accomplished in the project and you can check it out and even use it in your own projects.
