West Cambridge Airfreight

Client: Francesco Ciriello, MathWorks <fciriell@mathworks.com>

You are tasked with the development of an autonomous drone delivery system for light-weight package transportation around the West Cambridge site. By using high-fidelity drone models from the new MathWorks UAV Toolbox, you will develop an autonomous ground control system that coordinates one (or more!) drones around the site. Consider how to incorporate path and task planning, motor and plant control, and sensing & perception for navigation and obstacle avoidance. Evaluation in the realistic UR4 simulation will include simulated sensor data from 3D LIDAR readings and simulated camera input.
