VECROS OPEN HOUSE 002: How to Build a GPS-Denied Drone in 1 Hour
About the Event
We’ve been flying drones without GPS for a while now. On 20 November, we’ll show you how it’s done.
We’ll start with a drone that can’t navigate without GPS. Then, one command at a time, we’ll set it up to understand the space around it, work out where it is, and navigate on its own - ALL UNDER 1 HOUR.
When the last command runs, it flies. Live, inside our office, in an arena built for the day.
You’ll see every step, so you leave knowing how to build one.
What’s inside?
The build
Every step from setup to takeoff, run live as a series of commands you can follow along with.
The flight
An autonomous flight in a GPS-denied environment, close enough to hear the props.
The stack behind it
Built on JETCORE and our software stack. We’ll show you how the two come together to make GPS-denied flight possible.
On the tables
Hands-on stations with the boards and tools we use every day. Pick them up, run them, and ask how they work.
Who’s in the room
Drone, robotics and deep tech teams from across Bengaluru, alongside some of the companies we build for. Bring your teammates.
There’ll be a short talk on how we got here. The rest of the afternoon is yours. Walk through the lab, ask hard questions, and bring the problem you’re stuck on.
