Bravo, well done. This just poked human knowledge as a whole a bit further in both science and art. Thank you for both doing this experiment and documenting it and sharing it in such an endearing way. You worked extremely hard on this and it inspired me to model the way you shared your work. Bravo bravo.
Very cool work! I'm an robotics engineer, PHD, and flying drones in my free time. I thought about exactly the same project, but lack the time. Very impressive, considering you are still studying. Keep up the good work. I see an upcoming excellent engineer / software developer. Don't underestimate the open paths that lie in front of you. If you keep up this pace, you can become whatever you want.
As a full stack web dev whose day job is mostly just LOB apps, and a hobbyist understanding of drones and embedded programming (I’ve done a bit of esp stuff) this is really impressive! Just looking at your react front end with the stream data blows my mind a bit hey. Amazing work!!
Genuinely impressive work. I'm reminded of a demo I saw years ago in which a drone would recognize that it was running low on juice, so it could land on a pad which would swap out the battery pack, like the Tesla S did for 15 minutes in a simpler time. Anyhow, even more than getting it all working (which is a commendable feat) the real signal this project sends to someone who knows what they are looking at is that you're someone who can take a complicated problem that crosses multiple technical domains and then iterate on each aspect until you achieve an outcome. I would hire you in a heartbeat if I was in a position to do so.
Really impressive, and incredibly well explained for such a complex and deeply technical project! I think my favorite aspect is your resourcefulness in utilizing the cheap cameras and floppy disk filter (MacGuiver would be proud)!!! All around inspiring work!
This is incredible! I just checked some of your other projects as well. All of them just lit a fire in me. I recently got access to a makerspace so I definitely want to work on something like this. Big Fan all the way from South Africa.
Depends how much of the system he made himself. There's not much glory in using premade hardware with premade software to do premade tasks in a controlled setting.
Super amazed by the tracking system. Off-the-shelf solutions are super expensive, but you managed to pull it off with just a lower budget. I'm saving this to potentially replicate it. Thank you for your hardwork!
We've been doing exactly this with a single camera for head tracking in the flight sim community for a decade. First time I've seen someone make a proper mocap system out of it!
Maaan, what a great project! I saw something similar made with high-speed cameras (probably costing thousands of dollars) AND YOU MADE THIS AWESOME THING for price of a meal, you are amazing!
Such an impressive integrated system of multiple projects. The camera conversion project with custom IR filters is amazing in itself. What's fascinating is having 3 IR LEDs allows not only allows tracking position in space, but could enable determination of pitch, row, and yaw angles, so offers a number of possible options to modify and refine ... possibility leading to controlling a drone swarm. This video/project may be enough to gain sponsorship for a dedicated internship project next summer. (one focused fun job, instead of two)
this is a huge benefit for indoor drone use, as gps wont work as great under buildings. in the future drones will bring you food to you or any item you would like. really cool bro!
I love your projects. Thanks for sharing this one! I was super surprised about the high frame rate on the sony camera. Really just so cool to see people like you sharing this stuff, I have a project I’m working on that I am gonna release for the community that I hope is useful and good too :)
It is a great project showing how to do more WITH LESS. Outstanding job! Engineering is about this; these are your resources, and squeeze the maximum from them.
Oh my. That is magical. I know I know, just a lot of work, programming, and mistakes. Like all excellent work, many hours of effort for a few moments of magic.
Outstanding project and very well explained, even for us new to the subject. I can see this concept to be used in many different projects and showcases. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for sharing this video. I especially like the systems-level thinking and diagram, and good job to get those complicated nested PID loops working. The math shown for bundle-adjustment minimizing reprojection error is something I didn't know before, it is very useful, I appreciated learning it from the video. If you need to track more than 6 points and they start to overlap you could try to synchronize timers so they're not all on all at once. The esp32 has a real time clock, so you may be able to synchronize several drones to be down to the millisecond with each other (you synchronize it with a physical pin you keep reading, then physically connect them all and synchronize them with one signal at the same time), and then turn them on and off in a certain pattern (so once you have synchronized the seconds the ones that are on for 000-005 ms after each second is the first light, the one that is on 005-010 is the second light, and so forth, and once you've got them all the pattern repeats - they turn on at their assigned time. Think of it like one of them shows up on the hour for five minutes, one each :05 to :10 past the hour, and so forth, only it's milliseconds not minutes and also it repeats, they just don't fire at the same time. It works as long as you can synchronize the clocks and they're high-resolution enough. This way they drones are way easier to tell apart. The number of drones you can handle one at a time this way depends on your camera's framerate. This works because speed of light is really fast so as long as you synchronize ahead of time and have a good real time clock you can figure out which is which, and you do mention the camera has a really high frame-rate. The CV system has a latency in it so you should have one of the lights turn on on exactly on the second every second for a different number of milliseconds from the others, so by looking for that length you can figure out what that latency is. This will require you to track how long the beacons have been on but it should not be too difficult. The CV system's latency is fixed usually, so you should be able to do this. Try it. For milspec applications they could use a super high resolution timer and synchronize real time clocks down to the nanoseconds (my DM's are open, DoD) and keep track of up to tens of thousands of drones through high resolution cameras, but milliseconds is good for your $20 system and could get you to twenty drones or so without the spots interfering with each other and without adding too much latency. I'd love to know if you are able to try it, let me know.
A good next step could be to use your own firmware on the drones. Providing a series of inputs to the controller via the PWM signals which results in a sort of nested PID loops like you discussed can make it difficult for precise movements, but if you are able to have custom firmware work out motor speeds in order to optimize moving the drone through a path in space, you can have them zip around in patterns in the most optimal way. Could also train a neural net to do this as well, rather than needing outputs for pitch, yaw, roll and throttle which translate to flight controller, the neural net would directly control the motor speeds through a series of waypoints
Thank you for your contribution to the open-source community! This is an impressive project. I am excited to see how your ingenuity is used in the world in the years to come. Please know that many of us are inspired!
damn I have never clicked on the sub button as fast as I just did. Youre doing incredibly cool stuff man and I would love to be a part of this interesting mind of yours!
Wow this is awesome!!! You could use it to make 3D Scans of people or objects! Normally this is done by a lot of high quality cameras all around the subject but with this only one good quality camera is needed. Attach it to the drone and write a code, that the drone flies around the subject and takes photos from different angles. With the gyro and tracking data you can create awesome 3D Scans! I'd love to see someone doing this because I have got no clue how to start ... 😅
I have had nightmares for decades about control systems and polar diagrams I got at school. But just like digital signal processing, that was only maths at my school, it is nice to finally have a real world example.
Great work. Not easy to navigate all of those different protocols and stitch something like this together. Also great triangulation algorithm work. We need more bright and talented engineers like yourself. Thanks for making the project open source so that others can be inspired and have some assistance to build something great too

Bravo... I just recently learned that the Wii controller contains a camera that reports the 3 brightest IR points in it's view., for orientation detection. Seems like a potential shorcut for some of your location detection...
A cheap accurate positioning system like this is pretty fantastic. I think a great application could be scaling it up by a small factor and using it as a tool to assist with staking out foundation layouts for homes I just spent a weekend staking out a foundation for the home I'm going to build on some very challenging terrain that made taking accurate measurements very challenging. If I could have just screwed some cameras into the trees and had an accurate positioning system, That would have been amazing
Dope! Thinking of doing it in the opposite way: having the cameras on the drones and setting the beacons with infra red light. So the drone could figure out its 3d position without any radio signal

Thinking of doing it in the opposite way: having the cameras on the drones and setting the beacons with infra red light. So the drone could figure out its 3d position without any radio signal
Joshua Bird thank you very much. It's very impressive how simple and brilliant idea it is :)
Great video, saw your Ender 2 Pro box, I just bought mine 2 weeks ago, love it!
reminds me of VR tracking for PCVR headsets. They usually have 2 base stations and infra-red markers on the controllers and headset
Awesome work! I am currently creating my own drone. Goodluck with everything. Thanks for sharing!
This is a super cool project dude! Good work!
Super cool to see all processes you had to learn. awesome job
Absolutely love the project!! Starred the repo. I've been wanting something like this for a decade, so glad you made it! Has it been replicated?
This is amazing! Deserves more attention
