We are building a fully autonomous FPV drone. Humans react too slowly to fly through dense areas at high speeds, so we removed the pilot. By wiring a Raspberry Pi directly to the flight controller, we created a smart drone that uses computer vision to see its environment and dodge obstacles on its own. Before we spend money and risk crashing real hardware, we need to prove our math works. I am currently building a mobile AR simulation to test our code safely. By using a phone camera and gyroscope to mimic the drone sensors, we made a browser game where you physically dodge virtual objects. This lets us perfect our 3D tracking and collision logic before we build the actual drone.
