<h3>Portland State Autonomous Vehicles Team</h3>
<p>We are an interdisciplinary team of engineering and computer science students developing an autonomous quadcopter platform capable of indoor reconnaissance for entry in the AUVSI International Aerial Robotics Competition.</p>
<h3>Quadcopter Version 4</h3>
<p>The AVTv4 uses the Hoverthings 550x frame with four off-the-shelf motors and ESCs. It is stable in a hover and can be flown with a joystick. We use a 9DOF sensor stick from Sparkfun to support sensor fusion with an onboard Cortex M3 processor on a custom control board. The board speaks serial over XBee and can be run with Ubuntu Linux.</p>
<p>We ideally would like to support university research and designed the platform with an eye toward graduate students. A Python plugin system makes it easily extendable. We wanted a quadcopter platform that, once bought and put together, could carry up to a kilogram of additional sensors to support research into machine learning and more sophisticated vision. It does not come with a GPS. </p>
<h3>System Requirements</h3>
<ul>
<li>Linux and a USB port</li>
</ul>
<h3>Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Distance under the body</li>
<li>Hoverthings frame is able to be drilled.</li>
<li>Also very modular. Lose a leg, swap in a new leg.</li>
<li>One control board with low profile.</li>
<li>Payload of 1 kg</li>
<li>Open source</li>
</ul>
