Updates from Project
Every project answers the following questions in 5min max:
What did you work last week?
What are you working on this week?
Dronecode SDK
Update by @JonasVautherin
Auto-generation has been a focus in the last days
Python, is now entirely auto-generated and feature complete
Swift is manually generated, we are working on the auto-generation
Python distribution (packaging) should be the next step.
Avoidance
Update by @jkflying
Using a “racing drone” frame, trying to go small and lean, cpu tunning, more robust not crashing
Making the avoidance be able to fly faster using only 1 camera
Pushing the speed limits we have currently, by a combination of working in the algorithm, plus config of sensors

@jkflying , your avoidance work seems to be tackling similar requirements as the one done at JPL? I believe they’re presenting a paper at SciTech this week, let me see if I can find it and post it back here.
