Quad-copter with wireless cam and self balancing

Project Title

Quad-copter with wireless cam and self balancing

Project Area of Specialization Information & Communication TechnologyProject Summary

A quadcopter is an aircraft lifted and propelled by four horizontal rotors; each rotor consists of two or three rotor blades. Quadcopters are classified as rotorcraft or a rotary-wing aircraft to distinguish them from fixed-wing aircraft because the quadcopter derives its source of lift from the rotor blades rotating around a mast. They belong to a larger category of aircraft defined as multi-Copters. Multi-Copters have various names based on the number of propellers mounted on the craft. A four- propeller multi-Copter is called a quad-copter, a six propeller multi- Copter is called a hexacopter, and nowadays we even have octocopters. In this work, we present the solution to the problem of stability of a quadcopter under any source of disturbance using different controllers, so that, it takes minimum time to stabilize itself after the impact of disturbance.

Project Objectives

Objectives of the Project are as follows
•    To improving the self-balancing of a quadcopter using different controllers.
•    To design the graphical user interface to communicate and control quadcopter.
•    To equip quadcopter with a camera to display video for different applications.
•    To test the performance of the designed quadcopter under different disturbances.

•    To complete the task at different places without any control.

Project Implementation Method

After the study of the literature, we had simulated the different controllers like Arduino, APM 2.8, naze 32, etc. so, we have selected the flight controller pixhawk. since it has a better result as compared to other controllers.
In order to run “Wireless Control Quadcopter with  Camera and Self BalancingSystem” research, several theoretical and techniques are needed to review through the previous related research paper. The review includes the technology development and control method used in Quadcopter. To improving the self-balancing of a quadcopter using different controllers. Quadcopter balancing condition is sensed by FY90 controller and IMU 5DOFsensor. For smooth landing, Quadcopter is equipped with an ultrasonic sensor. Allsignals from sensors are processed by pixhawk 2.4.8 microcontroller board. 
 

Benefits of the Project

• transportation at a small level.
• search and rescue.
• used for media purposes.
• lightweight.
• heavy load bearing capacity.

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

Quadcopter/drones that are available in the market are most expensive to full fill the requirements. since nowadays the stability is a significant issue. such quadcopter/drones that are self-stable quality in the market having the price about to 80k. so, our quadcopter price is going about 40k to 45k and having the most of the feature like wireless camera, self-stability, transportation facility,  high range control, autopilot control and many more things we are adding in our project.
