M1.02 - Drone Diagnostics VTOL Platform
Creating safety and reliability for drone fleets
Sponsor: Airogistic
Student Team: David Koenig, Mitch Richburg, Tarrant Diaz
Faculty Advisor: Mr. Mark Summers
Our Team is working to create safety and reliability in the autonomously operating drone fleets of tomorrow. We are developing the supporting infrastructure that any drone must use to operate in the real world. We are designing and fabricating a diagnostic suite for a Vertical Take Off and Landing(VTOL) array. By regularly diagnosing the drone health before take off, we can ensure a fleet's safe flight. Our manufacturing engineering students will be designing and programming force sensor couplings to propellor motors from a fabricated pad using robotic arms, for both static and dynamic flight checks prior to the full release of drones for flight.
