Overview
At Robotix Japan, I integrated a water level sensor into an agricultural drone to monitor spray tank levels during flight.
What I Did
- Sensor Integration: Connected water level sensor directly to ArduPilot flight controller
- QGroundControl Display: Modified QGC to display water sensor data in real-time
- MAVLink Communication: Configured sensor data transmission via MAVLink protocol
Technologies Used
- Hardware: ArduPilot, water level sensor
- Software: QGroundControl (C++/QML)
- Protocol: MAVLink
Skills Demonstrated
- ArduPilot sensor integration
- QGroundControl customization
- MAVLink protocol
- Real-time data display
