For all of you interested, who live in or around Mexico City. The Research and Advanced Studies Center (CINVESTAV in spanish) of the National Polytechnic Institute just announced this.
Program in Spanish Only (sorry!)
Mexico's first Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Symposium 17-18 Oct.

A couple of videos of one of the projects I've collaborated with, and will be shown during the event.

Hola que tal, el registro es a partir de las 9 de la mañana, y dura hasta las 6 de la tarde ambos días
Saludos
Thank you Rod, I'll be looking forward to hear more from you project or a link to your paper.
Glad to know that you are using nonlinear state feedback control, interesting.
Según avisaron sí será abierto al publico, el registro se hará en el evento.
¿Cómo me registro para asistir? ¿es abierto?
¡Es mañana! ¿Alguien de DIYdrones/3Drobotics irá?
Vision sensor are off board, using an Optitrack system in the lab and it sends the position to the quad's control board (TI DSP) via wi-fi, which then processes it and estimates the control inputs on board to achieve the desired position. The project was started using PD control, but the performance wasn't optimal. As of now, it's using nonlinear state feedback control. It is intended to replace the optitrack system with a Differetial GPS system for outdoor flying.
Rod, I would like to know more about "Seguimiento de trayectoria Cuatrirotor" what kind of optic sensor are you using? CCD + Optic flow, IR motion capture? Sensor, sensor data processing on/off board? PID control on/off board?
Thank you.
