Title: Position control with cc3d brushed and Visual tracker (OptiTrack, VICON etc.)
Post by: fboriero on January 10, 2017, 09:49:20 am

Dear everybody!
I am Fabrizio, a PhD Student from University of Verona.
Thanks for your efforts on this project, I love the philosophy behind it.

In my University, but not only there, we are working on autonomous flight and I want to build low-cost microcopter like https://www.bitcraze.io/crazyflie-2/.

So my idea is to take a Tiny 32bit CC3D BRUSH FC and connect it to a Ground station (Linux PC) trough bluetooth telemetry. After that, I want to build a position controller that takes data from a Visual tracker (in my case Natural point-OptiTrack)  and compute the attitute to send to microcopter.

Anyone has suggestions for this project?

Regards,
Fabrizio Boriero
