We have a new animation environment! It allows to visualize our tests in the robot soccer field in a much more realistic manner.
Yesterday (March 21st) we added feedforward to our controller and it really improved tracking! We now can control very well the overshoot we had before!
Last week, we have been working on including the z coordinate in our trajectory. We now know how to include it in the trajectory and will continue to work on it this week.
This video shows the top view of one of the trajectories!
Our first demo will be at 19th of April at TMC. We will fly one drone and have a screen showing the animation synchronized with two other drones.
