Un essaim de 49 quadrocoptères réalise réalise un show synchronisé. Ars Electronica Futurelab et Ascending Technologies GmbH ont programmé 49 quadrocoptères pour qu’ils réalisent un vol synchronisé à Linz en Autriche.
Chacun est équipé d’un éclairage à base de LED RGB représentant ainsi un pixel dans le ciel. Ce show, nommé « The Cloud in the Web » aura nécessité un grand travail pour arriver à synchroniser un essaim de 49 quadrocoptères type « AscTec Hummingbird« , c’est d’ailleurs le plus grand nombre d’appareils évoluant ensemble que je connaisse. Ensemble, ils représentent une série de modèles 3D dans le ciel, tout en discutant en liaison radio pour éviter toute collision. Cette démonstration reste impressionnante par le nombre d’appareils et surtout par une évolution de nuit, vous pouvez découvrir ce show dans la vidéo suivante. C’est avec un spectacle comme cela que l’on imaginer de recréer un nuage d’étoiles synthétiques, changeant de constellation au grès de nos envies. Fr/MK-QuadroXL.

This can avoid misunderstandings ! Technical knowledge is recommanded! Wrong soldering can cause damage! For the first test you should use a regulated power supply and not the Lipo (battery) ! Mounting the Motor Before you mount the three motor cables into the riggers, you have to check and mount the Motor. The motors are mounted with two screws. to avoid loosing the motors, use a little drop of Threadlocker. ATTENTION: The screws should be screwed firmly. The threads on the motor (above/below left/right) have different distances! Install the motor-, LED-cables Also mount the red and one black 0,5mm cable (in suitable length) into the riggers wich obtain a LED-stripe or a buzzer. Hexacopter lift test... FLYING CHAIR.

The University of Pennsylvania’s General Robotics, Automation, Sensing and Perception (GRASP) Lab have been the stars of the Quadrotor scene, by first showing the extremities of quadrotor flight, and now with this perfectly executed musical number #007. The video was revealed to the world yesterday at the TED2012 conference based in California. Here’s your debriefing on how they managed to make it all come together: Firstly, the room was heavily equipped with infrared lights and cameras, which was used to get an exact barring on where each quadrotor was.
The data received was then relayed wirelessly back to the machines to make them aware of their own location, and of their flying comrades. All the Quadrotors were programmed to follow three-dimensional waypoints, which they had to reach at precise moments in time. Like this: Like Loading... ArduIMU Quadcopter v2 mini. DIY Drones. CAN Special: Quadrotors at the Saatchi & Saatchi New Directors Showcase 2012 by MLF / @marshmallowlf @saatchilondon. Now in its 22nd year, the Saatchi & Saatchi New Directors’ Showcase hit Cannes again, unveiling another presentation of the new directorial talent.
Marshmallow Laser Feast (Robin McNicholas, Memo Akten and Barnaby Steel) were the creative and technical directors of the production which included a theatrical performance by 16 flying robots reflecting light beams on the stage. CAN got the all the details on how this mesmerising performance came into being. Memo describes the goal as to create something simple, beautiful and mysterious: “to push the experience to that of watching an abstract virtuoso being made of light, playing a bizarre, imaginary musical instrument.” The performing Quadrotors are not the *stars* of the show but rather the light forms generated. Their role, Memo describes, is to manipulate the space by sculpting the light creating a ballet of anthropomorphic light forms.
The MLF team started working on the project back in January this year. ArduCopter - arducopter - Arduino-based autopilot for mulitrotor craft, from quadcopters to traditional helis. Real Swarm of Flying Nano Quadrotors Doing Flight Tricks HD. Aggressive quadrotor.
