Mesh Network: What is the best way to create a mesh network for our blimps?

Bhavik Joshi

Over the past week, I have been looking into what are the best tools/ways to create a mesh network for our ESP32 boards that will be attached to the blimps. The three frequencies we want to add to diversify are 2.4 GHz, 433 MHz radio, and mmWave 20 GHz. For the 2.4 GHz option, ESP-now looked like...

Dashboard requirements

Grace Kwak

Dash I worked with the team of undergrads to develop this initial list of requirements for the dashboard. It's based on the kinds of experiments we plan to run and what kinds of data will be relevant. Of course, this is a preliminary list only, but I've specified that we will use modular design so...

RoCo: extend the behavior to enable more analysis of our designs

Chang Liu

RoCo demonstration brainstorming We came up with some challenging problems for RoCo demo and we will keep brainstorming. (Thank you Nabeel and Mauricio) Here are some ideas (currently focusing on Paperbot, will extend to other robots later on): Robot going through large ridges or bumps: robot...

FORAY - Testing the streaming function of opti-track system

Zhaoliang Zheng

Current progress: In the past week, I tested the opti-track system streaming function. Before, after I used opti-track to capture the motion of our flying blimps, I had to manually import the data to a csv file and then process the csv file. This whole process took a very long time since in the...

Webots environment

Chang Liu

Webots Environment CAD Based on Thursday's meeting with Daniel, I built the following environment modules: (Note: all modules can be scaled and rotated in Webots.) 1. Base: The base is the ground. Other modules will be laid on top of this base modules. I decide to use this base in case we want...

The simulation of BOEM SLAM algorithm

Tsang-Kai Chang

Following up with Alexie's post last week, we furthermore show that the simulation of BOEM SLAM algorithm for 1000 sec. The result is the average of 5 trials. The computation times for other algorithm, including optimization based and the EM SLAM, are too large for 1000 sec, but we have the comparis...
