Development of a generic embedded computer system for a UAV. The system should be based on a single board computer or other embedded processor and will be used to perform the interfacing between the various subsystems on the UAV. It must be usable for the implementation of an autopilot system. One of the core functionalities of this system is that it must act as a data recording system.
The system should be generic, but as a guideline, it must be able to perform the data collection, interfacing and management to an RTK GPS system, a laser and an inertial measurement unit onboard the helicopter. Apart from this, interfacing to a datalink and/or an onboard video camera would also be required. It must also be usable to control the camera mounting on the helicopter.
This project will run as a 4th year Electronic Engineering project during 2008.
