Gesture Drone

Created on 17 Oct 2017

The next generation of easy-control drone

We are going to diy a quadcoptor. The main feature we going to implement is to allow people to control it by simple gestures. We are also going to add on FPV to enhance the user experience and automatic obstacle avoidance to guarantee safety.
