Flying a swarm of drones in your kitchen

Under the current circumstances, many of us are forced to take our development home. Working with hardware, as in robotics, this is often not very trivial. In this talk I will explain how you can get a swarm of drones to fly in your kitchen, a.k.a. the homelab. I will demo a couple of flying Crazyflies, 20 gram quadcopters, and the Lighthouse positioning system.

Track: Smarthome
Level: Intermediate
On-demand video: Yes

The talk can be viewed 14 days (after June 5, 2021) for logged visitors on the platform.

For the last decade, Kimberly has immersed herself in all things robotics, starting out with bio-inspired robotics, to finally making tiny drones fly autonomously for her PhD. That is how she discovered the Crazyflie and loved it so much that she decided to work for Bitcraze, the company behind this platform.
