Error Sources and Sensor Integration
by William Blevins
In this lesson (the 6th in the lesson series) students will actually fly their drone and observe problems. These will come from variables like power level of a battery, drift of the drone, and just generally not having feedback controls or a mechanism to correct for early mistakes. This will be a great place for students to reflect on what they know but develop the need for further investment to better understand sensor integration to monitor these errors.

Students will learn the importance of clear, precise communication by directing a partner to navigate a drone through an obstacle course. This exercise will draw parallels to writing clear and

This is a lesson where students will learn about the sensors that are integrated into their drones and how students can get a live feed of information from these sensors to aid in autonomous decision
