Starling-2 Max
-
Hi,
I am doing a benchmark regarding autonomous exploration of tunnels using drones.
The tunnels are manmade and are unknow (like a maze) dimensions: width of 70cm and height of 170cm.
We don't know the layout of the tunnels when starting the mission and the main goal is to map them and log the footage.
We want to the drone to start the mission manually until it reaches the entrance of the tunnel and the move to exploration mode.
The drone will fly autonomously in the tunnel using a simple algorithm in will log the maneuvers, so when it reaches a threshold battery level it will start RTH.
Your solution - starling-2 max seems like the best solution.
I would like to consult with you regarding few points:- Do you think starling-2 Max can do the job?
- The tunnels don't have sufficient lighting, you think I would need led illumination for the VIO to work? do you have addon you offer for illumination?
- As I understand it you have cameras looking forward and downward, I was thinking of adding a 360 lidar weighing 265 grams. do you think it will help to reach better results?
