Prediction of Payload Drop Point

Jaiesh Sunil Pahlajani | Ramendra Tripathi


Abstract: This paper aims to predict the drop point of a payload attached to an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The Data Acquisition System utilises two arduino boards, one present on the UAV and one present on ground. Both the arduinos communicate through RF modules. The one present on the UAV has various sensors which collect the wind speed, altitude, air pressure data and send them back to the arduino board on the ground which receives it and feeds it to a computer, which helps to evaluate the exact drop point coordinates for the payload. The system uses a FPV (first person view) camera attached on the UAV to give a live video feed back on the ground on a display unit (laptop screen). This FPV tells us where exactly the payload will be dropped according to the data collected by the sensors on board the UAV.
