Concept for practical exercises for studying autonomous flying robots in a university environment: Part I

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the usefulness of a concept of practical exercises for studying autonomous flying robots for computer science students in a university environment. It will show how students may assemble, program, fly, network and apply autonomous flying robots i.e. drones, quadrocopters, hexacopters, octocopters, helicopters, helicams, bugbots in different exercises, improve their skills, theoretical and practical knowledge in different aspects.
