LIDAR Micro Drone With Proximity Sensing

Summary:

The mini drone is a lightweight, portable quadcopter equipped with four motors, an Arduino Pro Mini (F3 EVO controller), a LiDAR sensor, buzzer, and LED. The LiDAR sensor uses infrared to detect obstacles, and the Arduino adjusts the buzzer and LED frequency based on proximity to alert the user. Flight is controlled via an RC transmitter, with commands received through an RF receiver and processed by the flight controller. This setup allows for safe indoor or outdoor flight with real-time obstacle proximity alerts.

This Micro drone provides the following advantages:

  • Small size and Low Cost
  • LIDAR based obstacle sensing
  • LED and Buzzer indications as per obstacle distance
  • Can Takeoff from ones hand/trees or tight places
  • Less Noise and very lightweight design
