Abstract
This paper presents a quadrocopter helicopter as a prototype platform usable
for research and education. Apart from the description fabrication hardware
and controlling software, we discuss several issues regarding drone equipment,
abilities and performanc e. We show, how to perform basic tasks of position
stabilization, object following and autonomous navigation. Moreover, we
demonstrate the drone ability to act as an external navigation system for a
formation of mobile robots. To further demonstrate the dr one utility for robotic
research and using in daily basis, we describe experiments in which the drone
has been used.
