A drone (from Quad "four" and Copter "helicopter") is a type of aerial robot that combines a basic propeller mechanism with advanced electronics for a wide range of real-world applications. It is a microcontroller-based embedded system with sensors, flying gear, and other integrated components. This class teaches participants how to create a Drone project from the ground up while also studying the numerous technical ideas involved in creating a functional Unmanned Aerial Vehicle. Creating a Drone gives the hands-on experience that an Engineering student requires!
