Liquid Galaxy project

TTTASK: Dronecoria light task 2: create a drone path command file

At this time if you've been in our project you've listen about Dronecoria project, one of our open projects this year. As we want you to see the possibilities of the Liquid Galaxy as a visualization tool we're starting to publish a series of short programming tasks related to.

This second task should be done after the first one: https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/6297453490864128/ This time using your original code you will generate orders for the drone instead of a KML file.

How the hell you command a drone ?? Using the standar defacto again, that's Mavlink, also Open Source ! http://ardupilot.org/dev/docs/mavlink-commands.html

So start your prefered code IDE and code ! You can be brave and test it using one of the many simulators out there: http://ardupilot.org/dev/docs/simulation-2.html

Delivery sent to our lgcodein@gmail.com email and post here in the dashboard simultaneously should include:

  • mavlink file
  • little text document explaining your experience
  • video with your ide explaining how it works

And be ready for more Dronecoria light task !!!
