Implementación de un sistema de control remoto automatizado de un u.a.v. para aplicaciones de monitoreo de condiciones climatológicas

Abstract

This project performs a basic automation of the movement of an unmanned aerial vehicle or drone, by entering positioning data such as latitude, longitude and height through the keyboard. The control can be obtained through the systems that use free raspberry pi hardware which coordinate the process of location and communication. The first system that is adapted to the drone, has a GPS module and a digital compass, sends the positioning data to the second system on the ground through the xbee wireless communication device, the data received is processed through python scrips by the raspberry, which controls a circuit board that simulates the voltages emitted by the real command of the U.A.V. to move at a certain speed. First find the height, comparing the altitude in which it is located with the one that should arrive, once found, placing the digital compass in the geographic north and proceeding to make the movement of the drone towards the required latitude and longitude. Thus, it was possible to obtain the exact location to take meteorological data in this case, but it can be used in several applications.
