Inspiration
Project was suggested by Dean Zeller based on a science fiction story he wrote
What it does
It is a drone which can be controlled by hand gestures
How I built it
We built it using ESPcopter Myo, Armband, and mobile device
Challenges I ran into
The ESPcopter has lots of bugs in their software. Drones were damaged in development. Bad documentation for software.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Implemented ESPcopter despite software challenges. Found way to connect Myo Armband and ESPcopter despite the incompatibility.
What I learned
Arduino basics (hardware and software), drone mechanics, effective task-load distribution, problem solving.
What's next for Chomp
Adding autonomous capabilities. Bridge the gap between armband and copter with our own controller software. Make controller more intuitive.
