Our Drone
Meet CAT our cute, intelligent little drone. CAT is unique from other drones because she is very small, but that doesn't mean she isn't fast or inefficient. You may be thinking how does that make her so special? Well most drones are larger and go pretty fast, but CAT is faster then you think and she is very efficient, she can fit through smaller obstacles most drones can't. CAT stands for Claudia, Alexis, Taylor. Which is the group members who are programming her and is responsible for her. We thought CAT was the perfect name for our drone because cats are small, but are still fierce. Just like our drone!

What is a drone? What is our project? |
Who are the students behind this drone? |
A drone is a flying robot, better known as a UAV which stands for unmanned aerial vehicles. This project we started to learn about the effect drones have on our world. We also are learning the physics behind drones like what equations and factors make them work. From the grant our team received we were able to get 2 Solo Drones for 3D robotics and 20 Crazyflie 2.0 nano drones. We are building, filming, and coding our drones for this project.
Drones in our societyDrones are used in so many ways in our society. Some are helpful, some not so helpful. An example of a helpful drone is a social drone. Social drones are drones that help people in many ways like sending mail or dropping of mail, delivering packages etc. Another type of drone in our society is commercial drones which is a drone that helps captures pictures or videos from unseen angles and is used for shooting commercials, videos etc. Other drones are used for military purposes. For example use them to go and look at places where people cant really go and they aren't seen or some are equipped with missiles.
