Project Title:
Control System for the BLADESTAR

Project Description:
Remotely controlled birds are used for unmanned sensing and communication. The RC bird is used in this project to develop an automatic navigation system, in which the coordinates are entered into a PC, and a series of radio signals are transmitted to the bird, in order to guide the bird to a predefined target.
