- Investigate and implement hardware safety mechanisms (eg parachute, hardware redundancy etc.).
- Implement GEO fencing and its corresponding actions (eg landing, returning etc.).
- Detect and resolve sensor failures.
- Detect and resolve actuator failures.
- Investigate and design actions for other issues (eg onboard computer problems, battery, flight controller etc.).
- Drone assembly and test.
- (We are open for other project proposals).
