Boundary detection

Posted by Daveron on February 7, 2011 at 1:35am

Hello,

 

Does anyone know how to do boundary detection? Say a UAV flys outside of a predefined area it cuts thorttle?

 

Thanks,

Daveron

    You need a gps! 

     

    I've only worked with the MediaTek purchased from the diydrones store but this GPS at least returns the longitute and latitude in centimeters.  So at a high level all you need to do is have a preset min/max longitude and min/max lattitude and then as you're flying around, if either of the lon or lat goes above the max or below the min, cut the throttle.
