Summary: | Throughout this technical report, it will briefly describe the final year project of Aerial Scout Using Quadcopter Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) For Search And Rescue (SAR) Mission. The purpose of this work is to assist the work of search and rescue parties and increase the efficiency of search and rescue mission. The Quadcopter is operated using four brushless motor controlled by the latest flight controller technology which is equipped with mobile application to assist the drone operation. The Quadcopter consists of four combined system: flight maneuver system, live video feed system, camera and global positioning system (GPS) messaging system, and mobile application system. The system also use four different types of operating frequencies, 2.4GHz for flight Radio system, 413MHz for transmitting telemetry data, 5.8GHz for video feed and 915 MHz for mobile messaging application. From the experiment, it shows that the quadcopter is capable flying for 1.8km radius and the Quadcopter operator is fed with live video and can trigger the camera and GPS messaging system whenever target has been spotted. The Quadcopter will send the GPS coordinate message and capture the picture for further analysis to search parties. From that data, Search and Rescue parties are able to analyze and take necessary action for better mission. |
