Samenvatting

The concept originated from a brainstorm session with the project leader and the executive. Where the idea was to follow a professional cyclist with a drone. However soon thereafter it was realised that the project would not be limited to just following cyclist. Hence the name FollowMe.

The target (that will be followed) location is gotten from the GPS beacon is sent to a server. This server will broadcast all received data, and thus the location, to all connected devices. FollowMe will make a connection to the server and will thus receive the location of the target.

The FollowMe system, which is housed on a laptop, will direct a drone to the GPS beacon. Directing the drone is done with the help of the WI-FI connection with the drone. Through this medium data can be sent and received. The data can contain directions for the drone, position of the drone and the video stream.
By using both locations, an algorithm can determine the actions that must be made by the drone. The determined actions will then direct the drone to follow a target.

The results of this project are as follows:
• The location of the target is available for FollowMe.
• The location of the drone is available for FollowMe.
• The drone can be manually controlled through FollowMe.
• FollowMe can receive and display the video stream from the drone.

FollowMe does not yet have fully autonomous functionality. Achieving this feature will not take a very long time. The estimation lies around a week or two.
